Geranium 'Power Red' (Pelargonium zonale) delivers a burst of bold scarlet colour, transforming patios, borders, and planters with its striking blooms.

Cultivation & Care

• Planting Location: Thrives in full sun or partial shade—perfect for garden beds, borders, or large containers.
• Soil Preference: Prefers well-drained compost or garden soil; avoid waterlogged conditions.
