pelagonium Horizon Pink Ice F1 Hybrid is a bushy and compact, compound zonal pelargonium. This variety is robust and has sturdy stems that bear bright pink flowers with a beautiful round and bright green leaf. It blooms from early summer if sown from January to mid-March, forming small round bushes. Ideal for small gardens, hanging baskets, and planters.
Zonal pelargoniums are perennial hybrids of the geranium family, belonging to the larger group called Pelargonium x hortorum. Most of them are derived from Pelargonium inquinans, originating from the southeastern tip of Africa, with contributions from Pelargonium zonale and Pelargonium frutetorum. The Horizon Pink Ice F1 Hybrid geranium forms a bushy clump with a fairly compact habit and moderate development, reaching a minimum size of 32 cm (13in) in all directions. It blooms from spring to autumn with medium-sized pure pink flowers with wide petals which stand out nicely against the bright green foliage. Its sturdy and succulent stems bear circular, wavy leaves with toothed edges and a thick, healthy texture.
Once reserved for balconies and terraces, zonal pelargoniums are now making an entrance into sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them en masse to create a long-lasting and cheerful display throughout the summer. These plants tolerate drought quite well, allowing them to be paired with garden verbenas, stunning blue lobelias and black or purple-leaved Ipomoeas (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.

Botanical data
You can sow the seeds of pelargonium outdoors, where they are to flower in April-May, after the frosts. Choose a sunny location with well-drained, prepared and friable soil. Sow the seeds finely, to a depth of 3mm (0in), with a spacing of 30 cm (12in). Water regularly, especially during dry periods. Germination usually takes about twenty days. When the plants are large enough to handle, transplant them 15 cm (6in) apart.
Another alternative is to sow indoors from August to September to flower in early summer the following year. Sow the seeds on the surface of good quality compost at a temperature of 18-20°C (64.4-68°F), and cover with a pinch of very fine compost or vermiculite. Do not exclude light as it facilitates germination. When the seedlings are large enough to handle, transplant them into pots and grow on in a frost-free place until the young plants are large enough to be moved outdoors. You can keep these plants in a frost-free location before planting them in the ground or pots in the following spring. Pelargoniums thrive in fertile, well-drained, well worked soil and full sun.

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).
