geranium
- Position: full sun
- Soil: moderately fertile, humus-rich, well-drained soil
- Rate of growth: average to fast
- Flowering period: June to October
- Hardiness: tender (will need frost protection)
Large and long-lasting weatherproof flowerheads in delicate soft pink tones finely veined in darker pink and held above rich green foliage. ‘Apple Blossom Select' is a superior and vigorous bedding and pot plant geranium with well-branched stems, and large, early, uniform blooms. Too good to lose when the first frosts appear, why not pot-up and bring inside to a sunny windowsill to ensure a colourful, winter display?
Garden care:
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.
