Geranium Pelargonium interspecific Caliente 'Fire'
Geranium
The Caliente Fire produces clusters of vibrant red flowers. The clusters rise just above the green foliage with a very faint zonal pattern.  The Caliente Geranium produces a deep green foliage with a faint zonal pattern. These geraniums are desired most for their beautiful foliage, semi-double blooms extending above the foliage, tolerance for heat and its mounding habit. This is a great annual for Spring, Summer, and Fall. With the mounding habit of the Caliente Geranium, this is a lovely choice for mixed containers and beds.

Homeowner Growing  & Maintenance Tips
The Calienta Geranium prefers full sun to partial shade and prefers average, moist but well-drained soil. Trimming back dead blossoms encourages new blooms. Please remember, containers aren’t as drought resistant, they may need a little extra TLC and consistent watering if in containers!
