Geranium 'Top Guilia' Improved | Pelargonium grandiflorum 'Top Guilia'

An improved geranium prized for its magnificent large, dark pink-maroon bi-coloured flowers. In Cape Town, this evergreen Pelargonium typically produces its impressive blooms from late winter through spring and into summer, with flowering sometimes continuing longer in favourable conditions. Growing approximately 40-50cm tall with a bushy, upright habit, it makes a beautiful feature in containers, patios, borders and mass plantings. Give it a sunny to semi-shaded position, moderate watering during active growth and well-drained soil for strong growth and abundant flowering.

• Versatile garden performer, ideal for containers, patios, borders and mass plantings.

Plant & Care

Plant 30-40cm apart in fertile, well-draining soil in a sunny to semi-shaded position. Water regularly, particularly during Cape Town's dry summer months, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering rather than remaining constantly wet. Feed lightly during active growth with a balanced fertiliser, following the product instructions, to support healthy growth and flowering. Remove spent flowers regularly to keep the plant looking tidy and encourage further flowering. During Cape Town's wetter winter months, reduce supplementary watering and ensure excess rain can drain freely from the root zone.
