Geranium - Appleblossom
The Geranium Appleblossom, Geranium sanguineum 'Apple Blossom', is a unique variety that offers beautiful soft pink flowers that are complemented by distinct leaf zoning and an upright growth habit. The 'Apple Blossom' has excellent vigor and great landscape performance!   These full-sized plants are very showy in ground beds and containers because of their large, colorful pink blooms and silvery foliage.  Geraniums are grown in almost every region of the country. These plants have succulent leaves and stems and they are commonly called garden geraniums or zonal geraniums.  They are excellent in containers of all types from small pots to large tubs to window boxes.  Combine 'Apple Blossom' with other plants such as petunias and ivy. They do best when planted in ordinary well-drained soil; over fertilization results in excessive foliage and few flowers. Fertilize lightly every 2 weeks. Pinching of the shoots will promote bushiness; remove spent flowers to enhance flowering. 'Apple Blossom' is one of your best choices for use in hanging baskets!   * Hardy * Excellent vigor * Upright growth habit
