Growing Non-GMO Geranium Maverick Series Flower Seeds

Maverick Series geranium seeds can be sown directly after the frost but, for earliest spring blooming, begin indoors 8-10 weeks prior. Geraniums can be quick to germinate between 5-7 days without any need of light. Geraniums are just as popular indoors as they are out, and many gardeners will transplant the seedlings into moveable pots to store the plants away for winter. Plant 2-3 Maverick Series geranium seeds 0.25 inch deep and 15 inches apart in Organically rich, medium moist, and well-drained soil in full sun to partial shade. Maverick Series geraniums are known to perform in poor soils and gardens prone to heat and drought.

Geranium blooms throughout the first summer and will die back periodically, but this is totally normal. Deadhead plants into the summer to promote further blooming. Geraniums do best if fertilized every two weeks during their growing season. Cut back the flower stems throughout the season and remove the entire plant at the end of the summer.

About Geranium Maverick Series Garden Seeds

These flowers make charming bouquets all summer long. To harvest, cut a flower stalk as far down as possible, and immediately place it in cool, clean water. They may be harvested in the morning at full bloom or just before. Change the water daily for prolonged color. Flower food can be mixed into the water to extend the life of the blooms.

Pelargoniums are typically drought and rabbit resistant. Possible overwintering.

Pelargonium x hortorum also called a Zonal Geranium is a member of the family Geraniaceae and is mistakenly given the common name "geranium" in North America, though not actually a geranium at all. There is some division among American horticulturalists and hobbyists whether or not to refer to the plant by what it looks like ("geranium") or by its true taxonomic name ("pelargonium"). Pelargonium was first cultivated in the 16th century near South Africa and has thrived as a purely ornamental variety with countless societies dedicated to its cultivation.

Tips From Our Gardeners

”Pelargonium geraniums just scream Mackinac Island. If you’ve never heard of it, it is this tiny vacation island off the coast of Northern Michigan that is the very definition of charming. Scarlet Red Geraniums (pelargoniums) are their mascot!"
