Geranium 'Showstopper Mixed'
geranium
A ready-mixed collection that includes shades of pink, red, apricot, lilac and white. Grow Geranium 'Showstopper Mixed' on, and once the last frost has passed, plant these seedlings en-masse in the border or cram into your patio pots for a colourful summer-long display. They are sturdy and undemanding plants that will usually bloom from early summer, right up until the first frosts - particularly if they are deadheaded regularly.
Grown individually in cell trays, each plant measures about 4 - 6cm tall (from the base of the root to the top of the plant). They are ideal for keen gardeners who have a greenhouse where the plants can be grown on until they are ready for planting out in the garden once all chance of frost has passed.

How to care for Geranium Showstopper Mixed:
Pot up and grow on in the greenhouse until all risk of frost has passed and they can be planted out. Pinch out the growing tips to encourage bushier growth, and feed regularly with a high-potash fertiliser to promote flowering. Removing the spent flowers as they fade will encourage even more to form.
