Rocky Mountain™ Geraniums are, as their name implies, larger than your typical geranium. This series is about 30-50% larger than regular geraniums making them extra showy in your garden.
Unique Characteristics
Strong, uniform, vigorous plants with large, round flower heads are hi-impact and perfect for planting by themselves or in mixed containers. Ideal for Larger Pot Sizes and planting in the ground. Not suited to small containers. Height: 16-18 Inches. Spread: 16-18 Inches.
Planting Advice
To add interest to you containers, plant Rocky Mountain™ Geraniums near the center of large container, surrounded by smaller plants that spill over the edges, such as Lobularia, Springeri Fern, Euphorbia, and Variegated Vinca Major. A Draecena Spike will also add texture interest to geranium containers.
Care Instructions
Just like all zonal geraniums, the “Rockies” like it dry, and they like to be fed. Water only when soil is completely dry. It is best to water first thing in the morning, and water the soil at the base of the geranium, try to keep the geranium itself dry. Use TLC Potting Soil for container plantings to ensure proper drainage. When planting in the ground, Prepare your soil with a mixture of 50% Back To Earth™ Composted Cotton Burrs and 50% existing soil. Fertilize every 7 to 14 days with TLC Garden Max all-purpose fertilizer. ‘Dead-heading’ (removing the dead blooms), should be done as needed, especially after heavy rain.
