Geranium Seeds - Mixed Ivy

Geranium seeds grow into trailing to spreading annual plants with flexible stems and dense foliage, commonly used in containers, hanging baskets, window boxes, and raised planters. Ivy-type geraniums are adapted to mild to warm climates and perform well in locations with good air circulation and consistent sunlight. Plants establish steadily from seed and are suitable for seasonal ornamental planting in gardens and container-based settings where drainage and regular care are maintained.
