Sigrunn's Geranium


Sigrunn, this is the Geranium you admired in my garden, but a very young one. We will nurture it for you until your visit in late August. After that you will have to pamper it until next year when you can plant it in your tub or garden and take some cuttings in autumn - it has a lovely pinky-white heavy head with a variegated large leaf. A real stunner.

Thanks a lot Helga. I,m looking forward to that. That geranium is so sweet.

Sigrunn said...

Forgot to ask you; has it got a name?

Helga said...

I will find out by tomorrow, hopefully. Bob needs to ask Matt the gardener from whom we received it.

Sigrunn, as promised find below the name and description:-

Geranium Appleblossom

With blooms so tight they can only open as far as exquisite, clustered rosebuds, this stunning variety is much admired and very collectable.

Excellent for patio pots and as a windowsill pot plant.

Height: 16 inches. Spread: 10 inches.

Thanks a lot. Not surprise that Appleblossom was the name.
