"Vancouver Centennial" 8-06-24

"Pelargonium ‘Vancouver Centennial’ is a Stellar pelargonium with chocolate-brown leaves with lime-green edging, and beautiful, upward-facing bright red blooms. Stellar Pelargoniums were bred in the 1970s in Australia, and come in a range of flower shapes and colours, and flower for several months. ‘Vancouver Centennial’ is perfect for growing in a pot on the patio, or at the front of a sunny border."

*****************************
The leaves are the star of the show with this geranium variety. The flowers are reddish-orange, small, single flowers and not nearly as flashy as those on some other geranium hybrids. However, these flowers are interesting in that they are a bit different than the more popular (and common) zonal geraniums.

Perfect composition against the blue background and the red color pops out of the screen. V.
