Pelargonium Angel Eyes on balcony 2009-08-07 001.jpg

gorgeous

A star performer!

Wow

Glad you love it! They have rewarded me tremendously this year. I have three different varieties growing in the same pot. They have shared the same pot for 3 or 4 years so this spring I decided to change the soil in the pot. I repotted them in the same pot with fresh compost & at the same time pulled off some pieces which I put into 5" pots. They have never flowered so profusely & for so long as this year! They were originally a present from my wife after she went with some friends to a gardening centre for a coffee & a chat.

Your wife made a great choice!

That is stunning, I shall keep that name in mind!

I'm afraid that is the last photo of this year! :( Most of the flowers you see there have now fallen off. I can't complain as they have flowered since April - 6 months of lovely flowers! :)

They were all the rage when my wife bought them, you could find 1,000s of them in town! Now you can't find one!

I did a search for them on the internet a few weeks ago & you can still buy them from some nurseries.

If you want to buy some they are called Pelargonium Angel Eyes. Here is just one of the results: http://www.pac-elsner.com/uk/pelargonien/pelargonien-crispum.html

As you will see "Angel Eyes" is the name of the Variety not the individual plants.

These are really lovely! THe flowers hae overcome the plant! Great rewards!

There're still a few flowers left & I have several small plants in 5" pots. They haven't done nearly as well as I'd hoped but perhaps next year ...
