Simply Red

I'm delighted with the blooms on this geranium which I bought on a clearance shelf in the gardening section of a local DIY store at the end of the summer.
Repotted, watered and placed in a sunny window, it has rewarded my efforts with a mass of flaming blooms.
I don't really have green fingers so I hope it survives the winter and can be coaxed into flowering next summer.
Working late tonight so I'l catch up with comments tomorrow.
