Pelargonium (Peltatum Grp) 'Balkon White' - muscate curgatoare tiroleze albe

Pelargonium peltatum is a popular variety of geranium, also known as trailing geranium or balcony geranium. This plant belongs to the Geraniaceae family and is native to South Africa.

A distinctive feature of this variety is that it has long, flexible stems that can cling to supports, so the plant can be grown as a trailing plant. The leaves are round and glossy, and the flowers have five petals and can appear in a variety of colors, such as white, pink, red, or violet.

Here are some care tips:

Light: The plant prefers sunny or semi-shaded places but can also tolerate partial shade.

Water: Watering should be moderate and regular, ensuring the soil is well-drained. It is important not to leave the soil too wet, as this can lead to root rot. During summer, it should be watered more frequently because the temperature rises and the plant will consume more water.

Soil: Pelargonium peltatum prefers well-drained soil rich in nutrients. To ensure good drainage, we can mix the soil with perlite or sand. It is important to make sure the soil is always moist but not waterlogged.

Fertilizing: It is recommended to fertilize the geranium every two weeks with a fertilizer for flowering plants. This will help the plant's development and flowering.

Pruning: Pruning is important to encourage compact growth and abundant flowering. We should cut the tips of the stems to stimulate the growth of lateral branches.

Protection against pests: Trailing geranium can be affected by various pests, such as scale insects or aphids. It is important to monitor the plants and treat them when signs of infestation are observed.
