Brighten Your Garden Instantly with Geranium 'Balcon Mix'

The Geranium 'Balcon Mix' (Pelargonium hybrid) is a classic summer favourite, renowned for its abundant, colourful blooms and reliable performance in UK gardens. Specially selected for their vibrant hues and trailing habit, these pre-planted baskets deliver instant impact—just hang and enjoy!

Why Choose the 'Balcon Mix'?

• Flowering: Produces masses of bright, semi-double flowers from late spring through the end of summer.
• Growth Habit: Trailing stems create a full, cascading display ideal for hanging baskets and window boxes.
• Hardiness: Performs best as an annual in the UK but can be overwintered indoors in frost-free conditions.
• Mature Size: Each basket fills out to create a lush, eye-level focal point.

Caring for Your Geranium Hanging Basket

• Light: Prefers full sun but tolerates partial shade—place in a bright spot for best flowering.
• Watering: Water regularly to keep soil moist but not waterlogged. Allow top inch of compost to dry between waterings.
• Feeding: Apply a balanced liquid fertiliser every 2-3 weeks during active growth for maximum blooms.
• Deadheading: Remove faded flowers to encourage continuous flowering throughout the season.
• Overwintering: Before the first frost, bring baskets indoors or take cuttings to grow on next year.

Baskets & Display Ideas

• Baskets arrive pre-planted in your choice of 25cm or 35cm diameter—perfect for patios, balconies, or porches.
• Create a stunning display by grouping multiple baskets or pairing with trailing lobelia or ivy-leaved pelargoniums.
