Incredibly vigorous, with blooms all along their branches, they are a great accent to mixed containers with their unique flower shape, but profuse enough bloomers to be planted alone. Heat tolerant, drought tolerant, extremely disease resistant, and, best of all, they attract hummingbirds! We have four colors: two shades of bluish/purple, white and soft yellow.

We also recommend checking out trailing Ivy geraniums. They are great for mixing in hanging baskets, planters, and window boxes, and produce even more blossoms than their upright counterparts. Can’t decide between the two? Try the Calliope series, which is a hybrid of the two. A mounding plant with the high yield blooming of the Ivy.

Plant it in a mixed container as a complement to your favorites and watch it steal the show with its eye catching color and vigorous growth. In addition to Marguerite, these guys come in several dark leaved varieties, such as Blackie, that provide a great contrast to soft toned flowers.
