Geranium maderense is a show-stopping perennial that brings bold beauty to any garden. Known as the "Giant Geranium," this impressive plant boasts massive, deeply lobed green leaves that form a lush, architectural mound. The real magic happens from May to September, towering, branched stems are sent skyward, each covered in vibrant, magenta-pink blooms. These striking flowers create a dramatic, eye-catching display, making it a must-have for any gardener looking to add a pop of colour and texture. Native to the island of Madeira, Geranium maderense is easy to grow and thrives in well-drained soil and sunny to partially shaded areas. It is drought-tolerant once established, making it perfect for low-maintenance gardens or Mediterranean-inspired landscapes. Whether planted in borders, containers, or as a statement plant, Geranium maderense will be the focal point, attracting pollinators and admiration alike. Reaching a height of 1.5m and spreading 60-90cm, Geranium maderense prefers moist soil in sun or shade. A half-hardy perennial (H3) it will tolerate temperatures down to around -1°C to -5°C.
