Picture this morning of the several unique varieties of geraniums growing in our greenhouse. Like the peonies mentioned in an earlier post, we grow what's hard to find! Even without the bursts of blooms, the difference in leaf-types is stunning.
Willy the geranium, March 20, 2019
Willy the geranium. March 19, 2019
Just a few of the beautiful varieties of peonies we have hand-picked to grow in our greenhouse this year. Chosen for their unique growth habit, colour, and/or flower structure, these are plants unlikely to be found at any other garden centre around; plants are limited! Of course, we like them all.. do you have a favourite??
This is a geranium 'Wilhelm Langguth'. This particular variety is noted for its pretty variegated leaves and showy bright red flowers. The plant in the picture was potted here at Reds last Thursday March 14. Let's call him Willy- distinguished by the maple leaf sticker on the pot. Be sure to check in on Willy every couple days to watch his growth and evolution!
