Plant Features

Calliope® Medium White Geranium Plants produce large semi-double white flowers and a mounded, branching habit. This Calliope offers zonal-type flowers and leaves, vigorous growth, excellent heat and drought tolerance, and a mounding to semi-trailing growing habit. These plants do well in flower beds, baskets and patio containers.

Planting Instructions:

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season
  • - Reduce fertilizing in late summer to prepare for dormancy

Pruning and Training:

  • - Pinch back growing tips to encourage bushiness
  • - Remove spent blooms regularly to promote continuous flowering

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Watch for common pests like aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites
  • - Monitor for diseases such as botrytis and bacterial leaf spot

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Produces large clusters of single flowers
  • - Blooms continuously from spring through fall

Light Requirements:

  • - Needs at least 6 hours of direct sunlight daily for optimal blooming

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F
