Product information
Named after the founder of the National Trust, the Geranium ‘Octavia Hill’ is an exceptionally weather resistant variety that will persist throughout the Summer with a vibrant display of giant, scarlet blooms. This variety is sure to be a perfect choice for a dramatic patio display or to fill gaps in borders. Pot up pelargonium plants and grow them on in warm frost-free conditions. When all risk of frost has passed, gradually acclimatise geraniums to outdoor conditions over a period of 7 to 10 days before transplanting them into their final positions in containers, beds and borders. Plant geraniums in a sunny or semi-shaded position, in any light, non-acidic, well drained soil. Pinch out the growing tip of each stem to encourage branching and form a bushier plant which will produce more flowers later on. Product Specifications:Position: Full sun. Height: Up to 60cm when fully established. Spread: Up to 50cm when fully established. Supplied as 5 geranium jumbo plug plants. Images shown are for guidance only of the expected results from plants upon maturity. Different growing conditions might vary results.
