More from our garden

Calliope Red Geranium Here's a pic of the best new geranium in a number of years. It's Calliope Red, and it's terrific. It's called an "inter-specific" geranium because it is like a regular zonal geranium, AND has a trailing habit. When grown in hanging baskets, to will completely hide the basket. The red is probably the nicest red geranium colour available, impossible to do it justice with a photograph. It will need occasional dead heading, and as you can see ours could do with a little trim. We've had more comments from customers who bought it this year and loved it, than any other flower we grow. Definitely we'll be growing a lot more for next year -and watch out for a new Calliope colour too!
