Botanical Name: Pelargonium peltatum 'Great Balls of Fire Dark Red'

Description:
Geranium Ivy 'Great Balls of Fire Dark Red' is a striking trailing geranium, prized for its deep, velvety red flowers and lush, cascading growth habit. Blooming prolifically from spring through autumn, this variety is perfect for hanging baskets, window boxes, and containers, where its trailing vines can spill over edges for a dramatic effect. Its glossy, ivy-shaped foliage provides a rich contrast to the intense red blooms. This heat-tolerant and drought-resistant variety thrives in full sun to part shade, preferring well-drained soil and moderate watering. With its self-cleaning flowers and minimal maintenance requirements, it is an excellent choice for adding vibrant colour to outdoor spaces.
