How to grow pelargonium varieties Edwards Elegance and Tuscany? Tips for planting and care

Pelargonium is a perennial herbaceous plant. The name of the family remains the same: Geraniaceae. Although over time, botanists identified the genus “Pelargonium” separately.

It is almost impossible to identify common features for a family that has five genera and hundreds of species. There are herbaceous, creeping, straight, branched varieties, and there are shrubs. Flowers vary in shape and size, but are most often collected in umbrellas. Leaves are regular, palmate or dissected. The fruit is a capsule with sepals.

Thanks to its southern origin, pelargonium easily tolerates sun, heat and dryness. But she is not ready to winter in open ground.

These are noticeable spreading plants, growing up to 50 cm.

They delight gardeners with large (up to 7 cm in diameter, or even larger) flowers of various colors, both plain (albeit with dark stripes or spots running along the veins) and variegated. Often they also have corrugated or wavy edges of the petals (the so-called double flowers).

The leaves of these flowers resemble maple leaves, but smaller and more “toothed.”

If other geraniums (say, zonal) can bloom all year without ceasing, then Her Majesty deigns to bloom for only 3-4 months. And even then, if the flower is not given winter rest, the flowers may not wait.

The best varieties of royal pelargoniums

There are a lot of them these days—more than one hundred. Therefore, you can consider this list of the best as my IMHO... But in our store they are the most popular ones. Looking at the photo, it’s not hard to guess why!

Ann Hoystead. Medium-high variety (grows up to 40 cm). It is distinguished by red-burgundy petals with a deep dark middle part and a light edge.

Askham Fringed Aztec. An even shorter (up to 30 cm) variety that has white flowers with “cut” petals at the tips and pink patterns in the center.

Black Prince. A variety with deep burgundy flowers, each petal of which is bordered by a contrasting light stripe. Grows up to 40 cm.

Bushfire. It has scarlet flowers, in the depths of which there are dark spots. The height of the bushes is up to half a meter.

Carisbrooke. A relatively tall (up to 45 cm) variety with pink flowers. Terry petals are decorated with crimson stripes and strokes.

Georgina Blythe. Another red variety, this time low-growing (no higher than 35 cm). The center of the flowers is white, the petals are slightly terry.

Joy. Joy differs from the previous variety in that it has a greenish rather than white center and the absence of dark spots and veins. It also has slightly double, red petals (but no longer with orange, but rather with a pinkish tint). The bushes of the variety are tall - up to 45 cm, but the flowers are small - a maximum of 4.5 cm in diameter.

Lavender Grand Slam. Terry pink variety with burgundy centers. It grows up to 40 cm, standard for royal pelargonium.

Lord Bute. The variety is somewhat reminiscent of Black Prince, but its flowers are even darker - deep wine color, edged with a dark pink stripe. The bush has a height of 45 cm. This variety cannot be called terry, but still the petals are slightly curved at the edges.

Margaret Stoley. This is one of the most variegated varieties. The red petals have spots, veins, and borders - in addition, their shape is also terry. The advantage of Margaret Stoli is that despite the very compact size of the bush (it grows up to 30 cm), it is decorated with relatively large flowers - their diameter reaches 6 cm.

Morwenna. This is the darkest of the varieties presented in this “top”. Morwenna's petals are burgundy, iridescent almost black, and are also wavy along the edges. And, although the bush of this variety is small, its flowers are very large.

Rimfire. These wavy flowers seem to bring together all the shades of red. In addition, they are also quite large.

White Glory. Tall (45 cm) bushes are decorated with “fluffy” white flowers. They are also giants among pelargoniums - they reach 7.5 cm in diameter.

The varieties Candy Flowers or Candy Flowers (originally Candy Flowers) deserve special attention. They are decorated with two-color flowers with characteristic spots that do not appear on every petal.

In this “series” there are several varieties, the names of which reflect the main shade of the petals:

  • Candy Flowers Bicolor (pink flowers, as in the photo above),
  • Bright Red (cherry flowers with black spots on the petals),
  • Dark Red (velvety dark red flowers with almost black spots - interestingly, the reverse side of the flowers has a lighter shade).

Important! Almost all varietal pelargonium flowers of “royal blood” do not have that characteristic aroma that not everyone can stand (that is, simply unpleasant). Therefore, they can be safely placed in the living room and even the bedroom.

Pelargonium Edwards Pleasure (Edwards Pleasure).

Dwarf zonal pelargonium. The bush is stocky and branches well. The inflorescences are double, large, warm salmon-colored with light tints.

Planting pelargonium: Even a novice gardener can plant pelargonium in the garden - the process does not require compliance with any complex rules. You just need to remember about the long roots of the plant when digging holes about 20 cm deep. When planting, it is better to leave a distance of 20-30 cm between the bushes.

Caring for pelargonium: Pelargonium requires systematic moderate watering: the soil should not be allowed to dry out or there should be a large amount of moisture in the soil. The flower does not need spraying. Garden varieties of pelargonium do well in partial shade; flowering is weak in direct sunlight. Therefore, on particularly hot days, darkening is required. The optimal air temperature for garden plants is no more than +20 °C.

Soil for planting: Pelargonium Edwards Pleasure (Edwards Pleasure) is quite demanding on the soil. The ideal solution is unused, loose soil with good drainage. For young plants without a formed root system, light soil is more suitable, so sand and peat, vermiculite and perlite are added to the composition. The soil for planting must be sufficiently fertile and well-drained. Pelargonium should not be planted in loamy and clayey soils.

Preparing for winter: Already in the fall, the pot with the plant is placed in a cool and dimly lit place. A southern or northern window sill in a house/apartment is quite suitable for this, since there is diffused sunlight there. And to make up for the lack of light at this time, you can use fluorescent lamps. The optimal daylight hours are 12 hours.

Planting location: The ideal location in the garden for Edwards Pleasure pelargonium will be in sunny areas. However, even in partial shade it is able to fully develop and bloom profusely throughout the season.

Reproduction of pelargonium by cuttings: You need to prepare a sharp knife or scalpel and disinfect it with alcohol. In no case should you use a blunt instrument, as this can damage the tissue of the cuttings and slow down the growth of future roots. Cuttings are cut from shoots directed at right angles to the main one, and at least 3 leaves should grow on them. For tall varieties of geranium, the length of the cuttings should be about 5-7 cm, for short and miniature varieties - 2.5-4 cm. The cut is made at right angles to the stem.

What kind of home care is required for Pelargonium Angel?

Geranium Angel is an unpretentious plant. However, there are some features in care that should be taken into account.

Illumination and temperature conditions

Astilbe - what to plant next to

The flower loves light, but grows well in places where there is not sun all day. In a sunny place it grows quickly, the crown becomes denser.

The Angel variety does not tolerate temperatures below 8 °C. In spring and summer, the pots are taken out into the fresh air, but make sure that there is not a big difference between the degrees day and night

It is especially important to observe the temperature regime during flowering.

Note! The plant should overwinter in cool conditions to improve the process of bud formation.

Flowers resemble pansies

Watering rules and humidity

Pelargonium of this type does not like strong humidity. The plant should be watered with warm and soft water, but the soil should not be constantly wet. In summer, more abundant irrigation is carried out; in winter, watering is reduced.

Spraying is not important for pelargonium; it easily tolerates drought and room air.

Fertilizing and soil quality

For the plant, it is better to choose a special soil for pelargoniums or geraniums. If necessary, you can mix the soil mixture yourself by taking peat, turf and a small amount of sand.

Important! Before planting, the soil is calcined in the oven to destroy harmful insects and parasites. You need to feed the flower every 2 weeks from spring to late autumn

It is possible to use any complex fertilizers, but you should make sure that there is no excess nitrogen. Otherwise, the plant will have more foliage than flowers. During the formation of buds, fertilizing is carried out with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers

You need to feed the flower every 2 weeks from spring to late autumn. It is possible to use any complex fertilizers, but you should make sure that there is no excess nitrogen. Otherwise, the plant will have more foliage than flowers. During the formation of buds, fertilizing is carried out with phosphorus and potassium fertilizers.

Flower container size

It is recommended to choose a medium-sized pot for the plant. It is worth remembering that the flower grows quickly, but a large container stimulates the growth of shoots and leaves, but not flowering.

Pruning and replanting

The plant needs to be trimmed a couple of times a year - in spring and autumn, sometimes in summer. This will help form a beautiful flower and encourage abundant flowering. Be sure to remove dried and excess shoots.

Transplantation is carried out quite rarely. The pot is selected depending on the root system. Drainage is placed at the bottom.

Blooming house

Good day to everyone who has visited the pages of my site.

in pelargoniums 2016 I want to show both the oldies of my collection and the new varieties.

Edwards Elegans. Large, white-pink flower caps with jagged edges of the petals. Delicate but expressive flowering of this variety. The bush does not cause problems, it forms well. This variety is part of my main collection. Not all varieties of the Edwards series performed well in my conditions content, but this particular variety has a permanent residence permit.

Ludwigsburger Flair.. my good old variety, which still appeals to me now. One of the first to appear on my windowsill, lives to this day. Was, is and will always be! I love its gentle tints in the caps, the greenness of the leaves and the tractability of the content.

new Greenacres , an upstart with long peduncles, the bush needs to be formed immediately, the variety is recognizable both by the bush and the flowers - this is a big plus. The flowers are porcelain-white, the petals are dense, wavy, the first caps are very large, lacy. There is also a minus. The variety still tries after pinching drive the top into two, three branches at best.

Calypso's favorite , this spring almost all the cuttings taken from the plant in February took root; last year there was only one rooted cutting from this variety over the summer. As soon as the variety started flowering, and it blooms profusely and for quite a long time, cuttings from it practically do not take root .

Lara Harmony is a wonderful variety that can bloom well both on the window and on the street. The photo shows a heavily pruned mother plant in a pot growing on the street. It quickly grew...blooms.

new varieties this year

BROOKSIDE KATERINA . Beauty, beauty and beauty again! Bright, bold in color, with a white backlight radiating across the petals from the center of the flower... you can notice this immediately, expressive and spectacular pelargonium... I really liked it. Large flower, neat cap. Grows slowly, forming a fluffy bush.

Gerda , very helpful in the bush, strong, stocky, well formed. The caps are large, full-bodied, voluminous.

another new one. Odensjo Madame Bovary

As soon as she showed the first flower... that's it! it was love, right away... this variety is very difficult to photograph. Delightful, deep and velvety red and dark foliage. The variety is very beautiful and contrasting! The inflorescence is not large, but this is for now, the plant is still young.

Anita , blooms from cuttings, sets flower stalks well, very delicate in color, fluffy inflorescences...balls of roses!

Prince Gustav...a prince he is a prince!

I probably took the shape of a leaf from the mother tulip, also slightly curled and harsh to the touch, medium in size, shiny. Not lazy, it lays flower stalks actively, even very actively. It took me a long time for an autumn cutting to take root, it survived the winter normally, but in the spring, in the best place on the windowsill, it dropped a fair amount of foliage, then after transplanting it into a spacious pot, it began to grow a bush. He liked it most on the balcony, having received an abundance of light and air... the bush was transformed! Variety definitely interesting and deserves attention. The buds look like ice cream balls, they take shape slowly, the inflorescence stays fresh for a long time.

PAC Viva Madeleine, this year, the February cuttings are blooming.

Misty…

Misty...very spectacular flowering, the white underside on a soft orange inflorescence captivates anyone...but it can be pretty stubborn, maybe it depends on the season or on the cutting...I don’t know for sure. Sometimes it blooms from a cutting, and sometimes it will form a good bush, but it will flourish mediocre. In This year the bush is good and there were two waves of flowering, but it began to expose the bottom of the bush. This variety needs a greenhouse, there it can be a real beauty! I will never give up this variety, it is too extraordinary and there are few like it.

  • Loose flowering occurs.
  • Large flower stalks that have to be plucked out frequently.

Geranium Lara Harmony is an excellent option for lovers of lush inflorescences. By following simple rules, you can get a beautiful decoration for a window sill or area of ​​your house or cottage.

Peculiarities

Pelargonium belongs to the Geraniaceae family. South America is considered the birthplace of the plant. Some varieties also grow on the African continent, Australia and other tropical areas. Pelargonium flowers are large, with elongated sepals, in appearance they slightly resemble the beak of a crane or stork, for which the plant received its name Pelargonium, translated from Greek meaning “crane nose”.

The color of the flowers has a wide range and, depending on the variety, can vary from light, almost white, to dark purple, almost black.

It is believed that pelargonium was first introduced into Europe in 1672. Botanist-collector Paul Hermann sent several specimens of this plant from South Africa.

Amateur flower growers greatly value pelargonium for its luxurious appearance and long flowering period. In addition, this plant is not capricious and does not require any special care. However, pelargonium is valued not only for its visual attractiveness. It has a lot of useful properties. So, an infusion from the leaves of this plant normalizes blood pressure and calms. A compress of flowers heals open wounds and speeds up the healing process.

As mentioned above, pelargonium belongs to the Geraniaceae family, so the two cultures are often confused with each other. Meanwhile, there are differences both in the shape of the flower and in the size of the plant itself. In 1738, the Dutch scientist Johannes Burman first separated these two names, however, another scientist, botanist Carl Linnaeus from Sweden, challenged this statement in 1753 in his scientific work “Varieties of Plants” and combined the two flowers into one group.

Disputes about this continue to this day. Meanwhile, those flowers that grow everywhere in almost every home are pelargoniums. Unlike geranium, which feels great even at sub-zero temperatures, pelargonium is very thermophilic and does not overwinter in open ground.

Pelargonium petals are of different sizes - the lower ones are smaller, and the closer to the top of the flower, the longer they are. In addition, despite all the variety of colors, pelargonium does not have blue flowers.

Varietal diversity

Pelargonium has several hundred different varieties. Let's take a closer look at the Edwards series. It belongs to the zonal group due to the special color of the leaf. During flowering, the color of the leaf blade changes, dividing it conditionally into two zones.

Lighter in the center, the color becomes darker and more saturated towards the edge of the leaf. All zonal varieties of pelargonium are divided into non-double, with 5 petals, semi-double, with 6 to 8 petals, and double, with 8 petals or more. Depending on the size of the bush, plants are divided into ordinary (standard) and dwarf. The standard can grow to a height of 30-50 cm, and the dwarf is usually no higher than 25-30 cm. Consider the most popular specimens from the Edwards series.

  • Calico. The flowers are large, double, and have a delicate silver-lilac hue, quite unusual for pelargoniums. The bush is dwarf, but very branched.

No matter how you judge it, I catch a moment, but can I really catch it?

I am glad to welcome you to these pages and want to invite you to the wonderful world of pelargoniums. The world of roses, tulips and carnations, the world of star-shaped, ampelous (ivy-leaved) and fragrant varieties. A world of colorful flowers and equally colorful leaves. The world of miniatures that fit in a glass, and the world of large varieties of zonal pelargoniums, from which you can form a standard tree.

How I came to be interested in pelargoniums, I wrote in the “About Me” section. And on this page I want to tell you why I opened this site. When I became interested in varietal pelargoniums, I was very interested in information about them. What are pelargoniums, what are they, how do they grow, how do they bloom, how many varieties exist, when and by whom they were bred, etc. and so on. The more I learned, the more I wanted to know. I found a lot of information on the Pelargonium Club website. A few on the sites of pelargonium lovers. But it just so happened that at that time, the main information was posted on foreign sites. Websites of nurseries, societies of pelargonium lovers, personal blogs of pelargonium lovers and breeders of new varieties from Belgium, Sweden, Great Britain, Norway and other countries. There wasn’t a lot of information, at least for myself I collected it bit by bit. Over time, due to a number of circumstances, many well-known nurseries closed, and some hobbyist sites too. That part of the information that was on these sites became inaccessible. Therefore, I want to share the information that I have been collecting for myself over the past 8 years.

Description

Pelargonium Anita is a plant from the Geranium family. But it belongs to the rosebud varieties. This is a kind of artificially created hybrid of Rosaceae and geranium varieties. Rosebuds have taken root as a species of zonal pelargonium. Small decorative buds are shaped like roses. And the leaves of the flower are the same as those of geranium.

The plant can grow up to 50 cm in height. The bush is lush due to numerous inflorescences that form in just one season. It has rose-like delicate pink flowers of regular round shape, with a closed core. The caps of a pale, cold shade that form the flowers can be quite large in size and denser. The value of its decorative qualities is enhanced by glossy leaves with a natural shine and rich green color.

I first saw Edward's Finn in Australia several years ago. It is a double stellar pelargonium with the most beautiful pink flowers on a compact plant. It was hybridized by Marj. Edwards of Victoria, Australia. She has a pelargonium nursery and has hybridized many lovely plants. Sadly not many of them are available here in the UK Marj. said that this is the only double flowered stellar she has produced, and she named it for Jill Finn who used to own a pelargonium nursery in Australia. I did bring a cutting back of this one, so maybe one day it will be available for sale here. Four years ago I attended the South Australian Pelargonium Society show and there was a really good plant of Edward's Finn on display.

Last summer a friend and I stayed at a B&B in Norfolk, and knowing of my interest in plants, when we left after our four day stay the owner handed me a cutting of a plant she herself had been given. She said the person who gave it to her did not know what it was, and neither did she. The cutting rooted, and grew into a really lovely plant – gold leaves with red stems. The leaves are stiff and have a bristly feel to them, but the square stems are quite velvety. I found out it is Plectranthus ciliatus “Easy Gold” and originates in the southern hemisphere. It seems to grow sideways, and on a visit to Wisley in the summer I saw it grown as ground cover in the glasshouse. I think I might try it in a hanging pot next summer. It does flower — the name Plectranthus is from the Greek, meaning 'spur' which refers to the spur at the end of the flower. You need to look really closely at the small flowers to appreciate their beauty - pale blue and speckled with darker spots.

I can recommend the Norfolk B&B — you will be given a very warm welcome. Comfortable rooms and a wonderful breakfast. It was the second time I have stayed there and will certainly return.

How to reproduce?

This variety of pelargonium, being picky in care and maintenance, shows a little of its “character” when propagated. However, following planting and germination technology will help you grow a healthy and strong plant.

Note that rosebud pelargoniums reproduce at home exclusively by cuttings, since when propagated by seed, these hybrids do not inherit maternal qualities. That is, from seeds you will get ordinary pelargonium, but not rosebud.

In this case, cuttings can be carried out year-round. But experienced flower growers advise propagating Anita from March to July. Below is a detailed algorithm for the propagation procedure of this plant.

The first step is to separate a suitable apical cutting from five to seven centimeters long from the mother plant. It is important that the cutting is semi-lignified, since soft green young shoots will not take root. It is necessary to cut off the process with a sharp knife with a sterile blade.

Use purchased soil for planting, since self-prepared soil will require thorough disinfection. And this procedure at home is quite difficult to carry out correctly.

The cut cuttings are dried and planted in a plastic cup, where holes must first be made for drainage, filled with an earthen mixture. Before planting, it is important to cut off all the leaves from the bottom of the petiole (which will be underground) so that they do not rot underground.

Within two to three weeks the cutting will take root.

Water it carefully immediately after planting, avoiding flooding, but also not overdrying. Water should be strictly at the root, or better yet, pour water along the edge of the glass

Use water sparingly so that the cuttings do not begin to rot before rooting.

For successful rooting, it is important that the cuttings are well lit. If this happens during short daylight hours, provide the plant with additional artificial lighting.

IMPORTANT! The cutting should not be covered with anything, as this measure can lead to rotting of the shoot. Pelargonium is famous for its diverse varieties. Read about Pak Salmon Comtesse, Stellar, Denise, Norland, Clara Sun, Rococo, Red Pandora, Grandiflora, Lady Gertrude, Patricia Andrea.

Planting a plant

If you decide to get pelargonium, then you need to remember simple rules.

  • The plant is light-loving. If planting in a garden plot, choose a well-lit place. In an apartment, pelargonium will sit comfortably on a windowsill or loggia on the sunny side.
  • You can buy soil for planting in a specialized store or prepare it yourself. To do this, you need to mix turf soil, leaf soil, sand, humus and peat in equal parts. The plant will benefit if fertilizing with a high phosphorus content is applied.

You can prepare the fertilizer yourself. It is necessary to prepare seeds for planting from March. To do this, use 1 drop of iodine per 1 liter of water.

  1. Before planting seeds, the soil must be moistened. To avoid diseases of seeds and bushes, it is better to treat the substrate with a weak solution of potassium permanganate. Having immersed the seeds in the ground to a depth of about 2.5 cm, you need to spray the soil with a spray bottle.
  2. To achieve a quick effect, it is recommended to cover the container with glass. But do not forget to periodically ventilate your greenhouse, otherwise condensation will form.
  3. After germination, the glass must be removed.
  4. Wait until the first leaves appear and safely transplant the seedlings into pots.
