Description
Pelargonium peltatum 'Roi des Balcons' Noa is a particularly vigorous variety, adorned with a multitude of light clusters of small fluorescent pink flowers that will keep on blooming until the first frosts. Its long and flexible stems give it a rather trailing habit, perfectly suited for ornamental pots and hanging baskets. Its resistance to bad weather, its generosity, and its ease of maintenance make this plant a king of balconies. Ivy geraniums are versatile, tolerating both partial shade and full sun, as well as cooler temperatures. Mix the colours of different varieties to create sumptuous displays in hanging baskets or pots.
Ivy geraniums are derived, among others, from Pelargonium peltatum, a plant from the geranium family that is native to the coastal region of the Cape Province in South Africa. This species forms trailing or spreading stems. Its foliage resembles that of ivy. The hybrids we know as ivy geraniums show the same trailing habit and increased floribundity. This variety forms a gracefully trailing clump, 30 to 40cm (12 to 16in) in height, composed of numerous flexible, green stems that are slightly brittle. They are adorned with bright green foliage with five pointed lobes. The slightly fleshy and aromatic lamina is peltate and circular. The foliage is a shade of green marbled with darker green. The remarkably long and abundant flowering takes place from May-June until the first frosts. The simple and asymmetrical flowers are of an intense pink colour, composed of 5 narrow petals.
These ivy geraniums are sumptuous plants that are ideal for decorating pots for much of the year. They cascade beautifully from pots and balconies. Their simple flowers create colourful spots that blend together or highlight other plants, whether trailing like purple or chocolate-leaved ipomoeas (Ipomoea Illusion Midnight Lace, Ipomoea Sweet Heart 'Purple') or upright like zonal geraniums, petunias, gauras, or fuchsias.
Please be aware that our young plug plants are professional products intended for experienced gardeners. Upon receipt, repot and store them under cover (veranda, greenhouse, cold frame) at a temperature above 14°C (57.2°F) for a few weeks before planting them outdoors, once the risk of frost has definitely passed.

Planting and care
You can plant your geraniums in the ground or in a pot. If you want to plant them in the ground, wait until the last heavy frosts have passed. In the meantime, you can pre-cultivate them in a pot in a warm and bright place to accelerate their growth.
Geraniums will flower from June to October. They need light, humus-rich, well-drained soil. They do not like stagnant humidity. Do not water them too much at the beginning of the growing season as they are sensitive to excess moisture. They tolerate drought well, but will need regular watering during hot summer temperatures, especially when grown in pots. Geraniums are susceptible to frost (minimum -2°C (28.4°F)).
These floriferous and fast-growing plants are hungry. We recommend feeding them with a liquid geranium fertiliser once or twice a week during the growing season.
Remove faded flowers and dry leaves as they appear to keep the plants looking beautiful and extend the flowering period.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
