Pelargonium 'Appleblossom Rosebud' is a stunning variety of zonal geranium known for its unique, rosebud-like double blooms. The flowers display a charming gradient, starting with a white center that fades to soft pink edges, resembling apple blossoms. The foliage is typical of zonal geraniums, with rounded, slightly scalloped leaves that may have a darker zonal marking.
Pelargonium 'Appleblossom Rosebud' is often used in containers, hanging baskets, and garden beds. It's particularly popular for its long blooming period and unique flower form, making it a favorite among gardeners and floral enthusiasts alike. Ensure good air circulation to prevent disease, and bring plants indoors before frost if grown in cooler zones.
USDA Hardiness Zone: 10-11. In cooler climates, it is grown as an annual or houseplant.
Light Requirements: Full sun to partial shade. Ideally, it should receive at least 6 hours of sunlight daily.
Watering: Keep the soil evenly moist but not waterlogged. Water when the top inch of soil feels dry. Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal diseases.
Soil: Well-draining potting mix or garden soil with good aeration. A slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0) is optimal.
Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4-6 weeks during the growing season (spring to fall). Reduce feeding in winter when growth slows.
Pruning: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming. Pinch back leggy growth to maintain a bushy shape. Cut back the plant by one-third in early spring to promote new growth.
Pests/Diseases: Watch for common pests like aphids, spider mites, and whiteflies. Fungal diseases like botrytis and root rot can occur in poorly drained soils or high humidity.
Propagation: Easily propagated from stem cuttings. Take 4-6 inch cuttings from healthy, non-flowering stems in late spring or early summer, remove lower leaves, and root in moist soil or water
