Pelargonium Flower Fairy Red Splash

Pelargonium Flower Fairy Red Splash is a new pelargonium from the excellent Flower Fairy series, which brings together varieties with an upright and compact habit, featuring strong stems and vibrant-coloured flowers. This variety boasts a richly coloured double flowering in dark magenta, with each petal displaying delicate pale streaks at the base. The flowers are enhanced by round and bright green foliage, which looks very healthy. This geranium blooms in abundance from June to October. It is a reliable choice for creating fantastic displays in containers and flower beds during the summer season.

In just a few weeks, Pelargonium Flower Fairy Red Splash forms a bushy clump with an upright and fairly compact habit, reaching a height of 35cm (14in) and a diameter of 25cm (10in) at minimum. It flowers from spring to autumn, producing large double blooms at the tips of its strong stems. The flowers keep appearing on the rounded foliage, which is a vibrant green colour. Its sturdy and succulent stems bear circular, undulate leaves with serrated edges and a thick texture.

Once reserved for balconies and patios, pelargoniums have made a remarkable entrance into sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them en masse to create a lasting and cheerful display throughout summer. These plants tolerate drought 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.

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.
