Geranium Seeds - Salmon Pelargonium Peltatum

Salmon Pelargonium Peltatum geranium seeds produce trailing plants commonly grown as warm-season annuals. Plants develop long, flexible stems with a spreading to cascading growth habit, making them suitable for hanging baskets, containers, window boxes, and training on low supports. This type performs best in mild to warm climates with consistent sunlight and good air circulation. Pelargonium peltatum adapts well to well-drained soils and benefits from regular watering while tolerating short dry periods once established.
