Description
Scarlet Geranium Seeds (Maverick Series) 5300. Hybrid. Annual.
Approx. 10 seeds/pkt
Bred as a high density, mass planting variety for the professional gardener but we think home gardeners will want it too! Early blooming, multiple stems and large 12 to 16 cm flowers on deep green zonal leaf plants can’t be beat. Matures to a garden height of 35-40 cm. The MAVERICK series is a big improvement over our previously offered Orbit series for colour and consistency of plant habit.
How to Grow
Start seed indoors in a soil-less mix in late January/early February. Sow 6 mm deep and keep at 21-24° C for the 14-21 day germination period. After germination, grow-on under lights at a cooler temperature range of 15-18° C. Transplant month-old seedlings to 10 cm pots for growing-on. Harden off young plants before transplanting outside to a sunny spot after all danger of frost has passed. Space plants 45 cm apart in the garden.
