Garden Goods Direct Geranium

It works beautifully in both. Its compact, upright habit makes it a standout choice for containers and window boxes, but it also performs well as a border plant in garden beds as long as the soil drains well.

For the best performance and continuous color, place it in a spot that receives full sun to partial sun. While it can handle some shade, you will get the most vibrant, shocking pink blooms with at least six hours of direct sunlight daily.

This is an annual plant, meaning it completes its life cycle in one growing season. It is hardy in zones 10-11, so if you live in a colder climate, it will not survive the winter outdoors and should be treated as a seasonal addition.

These plants prefer moderate watering. Allow the soil to dry out slightly between waterings, as they do not like to sit in soggy, waterlogged soil. Always ensure your container has proper drainage holes.

You can expect this geranium to reach a mature height and width of 1 to 2 feet. Its compact growth habit makes it very predictable and easy to space out in mixed arrangements.
