Pinch off side buds to produce large blooms up to 6" across. The blooms are large in size with the lovely petal shape and design of Camellias.

Geranium - Southcombe Double Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. They are perfect in the perennial border and work well as a ground cover too. For the most part, cranesbill are long-lived and do not require a lot of care. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall.
