Pelargonium peltatum 'Cascade Acapulco Compacte' (Ivy Geranium) is a compact, trailing, evergreen perennial with fleshy, deep green, ivy-shaped leaves on long lax stems. Single flowers adorned with 5 red petals and contrasting pale throats appear from spring through fall. Providing a summer of lush flowering, Ivy Geranium is a great addition to hanging baskets, window boxes and raised beds where it will cascade gracefully down, creating a waterfall effect. Heat-loving and low care.
