Pelargonium peltatum
EXCLUSIVE – Depending where you live, these charming plants are known as Pelargoniums, Ivy Leaf Geraniums or Trailing Geraniums. Whichever name you use, these lovely 12-18 inch cascading plants have softly draping, ivy-shaped green leaves and abundant, dainty, five-petaled flower clusters that bloom in soft cherry, sweet lavender and creamy white. Fancy Pants plants spill perfectly from window boxes, hanging baskets and containers, and their pretty foliage and abundant flowers will delight you all summer long.

BEST TO START SEEDS EARLY INDOORS
In early spring, 8 to 10 weeks before last expected frost, sow seeds 1 inch apart in a container of seed starting mix. Cover lightly, no more than 1/4 inch deep, keep moist and about 65-75°F (18-24°C). Provide a strong light source until ready to plant outdoors. Feed seedlings every 2 weeks with half-strength liquid fertilizer. Once large enough to handle, move seedlings into individual 3-4 inch containers to develop root systems. When weather is above 55°F (13°C) night and day, acclimate 3-4 inch long seedlings outdoors, then transplant into final containers.
CONTAINER GROWING
Choose hanging baskets, pots or windowboxes at least 12-15 inches in diameter and 8-10 inches deep. Fill with well moistened fresh potting mix. Transplant well developed seedlings into containers, spacing them 4 inches apart. Gently water after planting. Keep containers in a filtered sun location or a spot with afternoon shade.
GROWING NOTES
Keep Pelargoniums well watered all summer and mulch pots well to retain soil moisture. Feed them with good all-purpose fertilizer twice a month according to package directions. Remove spent flowers and seedpods to encourage reblooming.
