Pelargonium Flower Fairy Velvet

Geranium zonale Flower Fairy Velvet is a recent pelargonium, with a very early flowering, featuring strong stems bearing very velvety magenta or red flowers, edged with pink and highlighted with an equally pink eye. Its compact and rather upright habit is accompanied by a beautiful round and vibrant green foliage. Flowering from spring to autumn, it forms small round bushes. Ideal for small gardens, hanging baskets and containers.

Geranium Flower Fairy Velvet forms a bushy clump with a fairly compact and upright habit, reaching a minimum size of 40 cm (16in) in all directions. It flowers from spring to autumn, displaying large, fairly flat bicolour flowers with a velvety texture and medium size, with wide petals. They constantly renew themselves on round and vibrant green foliage. Its strong and succulent stems bear circular, undulate, dentate-edged leaves with a thick texture, very healthy.

Once reserved for balconies and terraces, pelargoniums have made a highly notable entrance into sunny flower beds and borders. Plant them en masse to create a lasting and cheerful display throughout the beautiful season. These plants tolerate lack of water quite well, which allows them to be paired with garden verbenas, lobelias with incredible blues, black or purple-leaved Ipomoeas (Ipomoea Illusion Midnight Lace, Ipomoea Sweet Heart Purple). Create magnificent pots and hanging baskets by combining them with bright pink or red varieties, Million Bells, variegated periwinkles, Dichondra Silver Falls, violets, and calibrachoas.
