Geranium Calliope
Pelargonium peltatum x zonale
A classic favourite to adorn any part of your outdoor living area or garden. With eye-catching, long-lasting deep red flowers, it looks fabulous in pots or in the garden. They need regular watering when young, then become highly drought tolerant once established. A regular dose of fertiliser during its flowering season will reward you dearly.
