Geranium

Pelargoniums, like many other bedding plants, come from South Africa, where they tolerate long, dry summers. As a result they are ideal for window-boxes and hanging baskets. 'Vogue Red' produces large, vibrant, red blooms above mid-green leaves with subtle bronze variegation. It is a tender perennial requiring a sunny site that has well-drained, neutral to alkaline soil. Requires frequent deadheading and regular fertiliser if grown in pots. Do not overwater.
