Description

Pelargonium Flic Flac Violet Nova combines originality, vigour, and floribundity. This novelty charms with its mischievous and ever-changing semi-double pink flowers that are randomly speckled and streaked with violet. Every gardener will appreciate its easy cultivation and its beautiful two-tone green zoned foliage. This beautiful plant is perfect for pots.

Ā 

Zonal pelargoniums group together perennial hybrids from the geranium family, in a vast group called Pelargonium x hortorum. They are mostly derived from crossing several pelargonium species native to the southeastern tip of Africa. The Flic Flac Violet Nova geranium is a recently improved variety. The vigorous plant forms a bushy and dense clump with a rounded habit, reaching a medium height of about 35 to 40cm (14 to 16in) in all directions. It produces flowers from May-June to October. Each plant, and even each bouquet of flowers, has its own personality, but all combine white, pink, and varying shades of purple. The sturdy and succulent stems of this geranium bear rounded and weakly lobed leaves that are quite thick. They display prominent veins arranged in a fan shape. The lamina is medium green, with a circular zone of darker green towards the periphery.

Ā 

Once reserved for balconies and patios, zonal pelargoniums are now making a remarkable entrance into sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them en masse to create a lasting and cheerful decoration throughout the summer season. These plants tolerate drought quite well, meaning they can be combined with garden verbenas, blue lobelias, and black or purple-foliaged ipomoeas (Ipomoea Illusion Midnight Lace, Ipomoea Sweet Heart 'Purple'). Create beautiful pots and hanging baskets by pairing them with bright pink 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 14Ā°C (57.2Ā°F) for a few weeks before planting them outdoors, once the risk of frost has definitely passed.

Planting and care

Zonal geraniums thrive in fertile, well-drained, neutral to alkaline, well-loosened soils. They prefer full sun. Geraniums are hungry plants that require regular applications of fertiliser to give their best.

You can plant pelargoniums as early as March-April in mild climate regions, but they will need to be brought indoors in case of frost. To avoid any danger, wait until the risk of frost has passed before placing them outside. When planting in pots or containers, use special geranium compost.

In the garden, wait until the end of April, or even mid-May, to plant them in the ground. Add a special geranium growing support to your soil.
