Ivy Leaf Geranium (Pelargonium X Peltatum Summer Showers Fuchsia) - Summer Showers have a vigorous, upright habit so branches don’t interlock on the bench and plants can be tightly spaced for simpler production. These plants exhibit better natural basal-branching and less disease problems compared to cuttings, resulting in lower production and labour costs. Big, informal flower heads and distinctive ivy leaves create a beautiful cascade from baskets, tubs and window boxes, and make an excellent component in mixed containers. Well-matched across the series both on the bench and in the garden, with great outdoor performance and holding power in hot, humid climates. Flowers quickly from geranium seed, making beautiful 3 to 4 inch fuchsia flower. Tolerant down to 32F or will only survive as an annual. Soaking seed over night may improve germination.
