Pelargonium salmoneum is an evergreen, extremely drought hardy, semi-succulent Pelargonium which has yellowish green leaves.
As its name suggests, the flowers are a bright, salmon pink. They are held above the leaves on a flowering stalk that bears up to 20 flowers. Peak flowering times are between June and December.
It makes an excellent container plant and does very well in open ground in the garden as well. It is the perfect height as a "mid-shrub", to plant taller shrubs behind it and shorter bedding plants in the front.
Plant Salmon Pelargonium in a sunny to very light semi-shade position, where it will flourish in well-composted, well drained soil. As it requires little water it is easy to maintain and just needs a little pruning to keep it in shape once a year in early summer
