Reach Out™ Mix F1 ivy geranium (Pelargonium peltatum) This mixture of single-flowered F1 hybrids forms compact, early plants that become fully covered in blooms. The packet contains approximately 15 film-coated seeds. Plants reach 15–20 cm tall and spread 25–30 cm, a trailing habit especially suited to hanging baskets, window boxes, pots, and the edges of garden beds. More compact and earlier than Summer Showers, Reach Out™ Mix F1 provides even flower coverage across the plant. The mixed colours create a varied display from one packet and work well in sunny balcony or patio combinations where a lower, spreading geranium is preferred.
For best results, sow indoors 8–10 weeks before outdoor planting and keep the growing medium between 18 and 20 °C. Germination generally takes 5–10 days. Place seeds on a porous, well-drained seed-starting mix, then cover them with a thin layer of vermiculite to maintain even moisture; light is not required during germination. After emergence, provide bright light and good air circulation. Transplant seedlings when the root ball is firm enough to handle. Pinching may sometimes help promote branching and create denser coverage. Avoid saturating young roots, and allow excess water to drain after each gentle watering during early growth.
Harden plants gradually before setting them outdoors, approximately 7–10 days after the last ground frost. Choose a warm, sunny location and well-drained soil or potting mix. Ivy geraniums tolerate short dry periods, but flower more generously with regular watering. In containers, water when the top 1–2 cm of mix feels dry, then allow water to drain completely. Remove faded blooms to maintain a tidy appearance and support continued bud production. Bloom generally extends from June through September in suitable conditions. Protect plants from frost, and move portable baskets or containers to shelter when unusually cold nights are forecast near the beginning or end of the season.
