Pelargonium Galaxy Pink Salmon

The Galaxy 'Salmon' Interspecific Geranium offer flowers in a salmon color that is certainly intense. A coral salmon with a touch of pink and dark. It is a cultivar with particularly vigorous growth, large semi-double flowers, and dark green foliage marbled with brown. It performs excellently in the garden and on the terrace or balcony. With an upright habit, the plant is robust and shows good resistance. These Pelargonium flowers are grown from April until the first frost.

This interspecific geranium, or hybrid, is a recent variety resulting from the cross-breeding between a Pelargonium peltatum, the ivy-leaved geranium, and a P. zonale, which are both plants from the geranium family native to South Africa. It combines the qualities of its two parents. Always more floriferous and with rapid growth, Galaxy 'Salmon' offers vigorous vegetation and forms a clump of 40 to 50 cm (16 to 20in) in all directions, with peltate, circular, dark green leaves maculated with brown, slightly fleshy and aromatic. The remarkably long and abundant flowering occurs from March-April until the first frost. The semi-double flowers are round and well open, with a dark coral, salmon, and pink colour.

Always more vigorous and floriferous, florist geraniums outdo themselves from series to series. The Galaxy range offers the most vigorous varieties on the market. Generous and undemanding, it is a perfect plant for decorating pots for a large part of the year. Beyond balconies and terraces, plant them in sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them in mass to create a lasting and cheerful decoration throughout the beautiful season. These plants tolerate water shortage quite well, which allows them to be associated with resistant annuals such as garden verbenas, cosmos, and zinnias. They also add dark foliage plants like morning glories to enhance them. In pots or hanging baskets, mix different varieties of geraniums for their varied colours, or add periwinkles, violets, Carex, or silver-leaved plants like wormwoods or senecios.
