Geranium varieties are among the most dependable bedding plants for creating bright, long-lasting seasonal displays. Their rounded clusters of richly coloured flowers appear continuously from late spring through autumn, standing proudly above lush green foliage. Depending on the variety, blooms may form large, vibrant flower heads or elegant rosebud-style clusters that add extra texture and visual interest. Compact yet vigorous, plants typically grow 30–45cm tall with a similar spread, forming neat, bushy mounds ideal for patio containers, window boxes, borders and mixed bedding schemes.
