Pelargonium TwoinOne White

Pelargonium TwoinOne White is a brand-new variety of hybrid pelargonium that combines exceptional floribundity with great robustness. This compact and vigorous plant bears beautiful dark green foliage. From early spring until the first frosts, it produces an abundance of large umbels of white flowers. In addition to its ornamental qualities, this excellent variety is resistant to diseases, inclement weather, and drought. TwoInOne White performs perfectly in the garden, is wonderful in pots, and is stunning in hanging baskets.

This hybrid geranium is a very recent creation, resulting from the cross-breeding between Pelargonium peltatum, the ivy-leaved geranium, and P. zonale, which are both frost-sensitive plants from the geranium family. They are native to South Africa. TwoInOne White boasts the floribundity and the well-branched growth habit of the zonal geranium, but with more flexibility and spread. It is adorned with smaller leaves, somewhat similar to those of its second parent, the ivy-leaved geranium. More floriferous and with rapid growth, it forms a tussock of approximately 40cm (16in) in height and 50cm (20in) in spread in just a few weeks. Its small leaves are peltate, circular, dark green, and somewhat fleshy. The early, prolonged, and remarkably abundant flowering takes place from March-April until the first frost. The large umbels of pure white single flowers are rounded and fully open. Pelargoniums are not very hardy (barely to -4°C (24.8°F)), but can still survive in the ground during winter in milder regions, where they become true bushes and show their full potential. In nature, their ancestors are plants that thrive in difficult soil and climate conditions.

These geraniums are generous and undemanding plants, but this variety surpasses them in vigour and robustness. It is the perfect plant to decorate pots for a large part of the year, without requiring much maintenance. However, it belongs to a new generation of more robust pelargoniums, which also make a remarkable entrance in sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them en masse to create a lasting and cheerful decoration throughout the summer season. They tolerate water shortage quite well, meaning they can be combined with garden verbenas, blue lobelias, and black or purple-leaved ipomeas (Ipomoea Illusion Midnight Lace, Ipomoea Sweet Heart 'Purple'). Create beautiful pots and hanging baskets by combining them with white or red varieties, Million Bells, variegated periwinkles, Dichondra 'Silver Falls', violets, and calibrachoas.
