Pelargonium 'Fallen Angel' (Stellar Series)

Confusingly known as geraniums, pelargoniums are in the same plant family as hardy geraniums, but fall into a different genus and bear no resemblance to them at all. They are normally grown as annual bedding plants although they can be overwintered indoors, and are prized for their bright summer flowers and attractive, often fragrant, foliage.

Pelargoniums come in a variety of forms, and most belong to one of the following six horticultural groups: Angel, Ivy-leaved, Regal, Scented-leaved, Unique and Zonal. All thrive in full sun and do best when grown in a sheltered, sunny spot.

Pelargonium ‘Fallen Angel’ is a Stellar pelargonium with pretty, bright pink flowers in contrast with dark green foliage. Stellar Pelargoniums were bred in the 1970s in Australia, and come in a range of flower shapes and colours, and flower for several months. ‘Fallen Angel’ is perfect for growing in a pot on the patio, or at the front of a sunny border.
