Description

Ivy Geranium (Pelargonium peltatum) brings cascading mounds of trailing vines dotted with abundant flowers in red, pink, salmon or white. Plant in full sun to part shade with a light, fast-draining mix—ideal for hanging baskets, window boxes or wall-mounted planters in Florida’s warm climate. Water thoroughly, then let the soil surface dry slightly to prevent root issues; feed every two weeks during peak bloom. Trim back long runners after heavy flowering to encourage branching and denser growth. Combine ivy geraniums with calibrachoa or lobelia in mixed baskets for a lush, spilling effect that softens hardscapes.
