Product Description
Summer garden must-haves! Bask in the cascading flowering exuberance of non-stop colour.
These trailing Geraniums boast a reputation that proceeds them, free-flowering for months from window boxes and hanging baskets. Plus, the vibrant and fiery shades of this ‘Decora’ series certainly takes some beating!
Each variety of trailing ivy-leaf Geranium in this collection boast bright, single flowers, which erupt prolifically to produce a torrent of colourful blooms from May until the frosts of autumn.
Geraniums thrive in any warm, sun-drenched location and are tolerant to drought, perfect for long, hot summers. What's more, you’ll be rewarded to an even better show by occasionally feeding with a high potash plant food and deadheading faded flowers, by cutting the stem at the base.
Supplied as 24 plug plants, ready to grow on before planting out, including:
- ‘Decora Red’ x 12 - Vivid red with a dark eye, trailing to 60cm
- ‘Decora Pink’ x 6 - Bright pink with a splash of red in the centre, trailing to 60cm
- ‘Ville de Rheinberg’ x 6 - White with magenta edges, trailing to more than 1m

Plant Information
Top Tips
Remove faded flowers regularly to prolong blooming.
Care Guide
- Give your plugs a little attention on arrival - unpack them immediately, and either mist them or stand them in water for an hour - they may be slightly dry or yellow after being in a dark box in the post, but they’ll quickly recover. If you can’t do this, they can sit in Mini Greenhouses for a week if upright and not too wet.
We recommend that you leave them to settle for a day somewhere warm, light and airy such as a windowsill or greenhouse.
- When you're ready to pot on, use a good quality, multi-purpose compost, and fill 3-4in pots (7-10cm).
- Make a hole in the compost with a dibber or your finger, then holding each plug by its root ball, place it into the hole and gently firm the compost around it.
- For great results, we recommend using our Windowsill Planters or 9cm pots in Shuttle Trays.
- Give your plants a good water initially, then only when the top compost starts to dry as they don’t like to be left in standing water.
- Grow on either on a bright windowsill or a greenhouse for 3-4 weeks before potting up into containers or into flower beds.
- If planting directly into flower beds when all risk of frost has passed, prepare the ground well, removing weeds and digging in some compost or well-rotted manure if your soil is not already rich.
Plant approx. 20cm (8in) apart to allow them room to grow. Feed using a high-potash feed such as Blooming Fast Superior Soluble Fertiliser for Flowers & Fruits, to encourage flowering.
- Dead-head when flowers fade to encourage more blooms.

Really bad! No products have arrived at my home despite the tracker saying they have been delivered. I have contacted Garden Bargains and have been emailed that they are looking into it. I have had to email them again as I have had no updates from them at all and have received an automated response?not good enough for an ongoing complaint. Very bad customer service. I will be giving them a few more days and then will be requesting a complete refund from them if nothing is resolved. I wish I?d read the reviews on them before using this rubbish company.

I waited for my order about 3 weeks, when on the confirmation email was 14 days for delivery. However, received all plants packed very nicely, only some of them with slightly damaged leaves. Thought that plants will come in a bigger size, but I'm not worried as they will grow with time. The price is much lower than in garden centres. Planted all flowers second day and all of them are growing very well! Can't wait for them flowering!

Delivery times not as expected. Information available online on my account not updated and therefore I had to ring twice to find out where my delivery was. Some of my items were missing and I had to ring again after delivery to enquire about these. This was dealt with efficiently promptly and in a friendly manner
Product:
Nice size of plant perfect for baskets or planters. We're missing from initial delivery but arrived soon after I rang company and plants are doing well
