An award winning intensely pink geranium is here for you to add some Va-va-voom to your landscape or container garden. A summer mainstay for all regions of the country, geraniums will add that wow factor that you have been looking for, and Boldly Hot Pink geranium will tick off all the boxes on your spring garden list for color and will upstage other geraniums making you rethink the color pink!
This mounding annual is native to South Africa and Australia Zones 10a to 11b so it is heat and drought tolerant. Zones 3 to 9 will enjoy spring and summer long blooms and with care and practice, you may be successful in overwintering the roots to give you a fresh display in the spring once again. It requires a good bright location with full to part sun for 6 or more hours.
Boldly Hot Pink Geranium Care
A systemic continuous fertilizer added to container plants will keep your geraniums flourishing, as well as a soil pH of 6.0 to 6.5. Average watering schedules will do, and keep an eye out for aphids and other insects. Address with insecticidal soap or light pesticide as required, but this is an easy care annual that will give you season long blooms.
Deadheading is required as the plant will slow blooming and needs help dropping its spent flowers. If plants get leggy, prune lightly to increase branching and budding for the best color. In the garden landscape, dressing with compost will reduce weeding and promote plant health.
Boldly Hot Pink Geranium Spacing
Give geraniums plenty of space to spread out, 12 to 20 inches is fine. They will reach 10 to 12 inches in height and make a great foreground planting for taller annuals and perennials or look great in mass plantings on their own. Pair with trailing annuals and contrasting color mounding annuals in your favorite container for season long color.

We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die.

The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability).

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
