Geranium - Maverick Pink The Geranium Maverick Pink , 'Pelargonium x hortorum', is a unique variety that offers beautiful pink flowers. They are excellent in containers of all types from small pots to large tubs to window boxes and combine well with other plants such as petunias and ivies. Fertilize lightly every 2 weeks. Geraniums are one of your best choices for use in hanging baskets. Over fertilization results in excessive foliage and few flowers. Pinching of the shoots will promote bushiness. The 'Maverick’ series has full flower heads in a mixture of colors including pink.
