Plant Features

Ville de Paris Lilac Geranium Plants offer a remarkably soft lilac coloration that is as heat-tolerant and sun-loving as our other balcony geraniums! Soil should be allowed to slightly dry to the touch between watering's. Known to attract hummingbirds.

Planting Instructions:

  • - Plant in spring after the last frost date
  • - Space plants 12-18 inches apart to allow for trailing growth

Soil Preparation:

  • - Ideal soil pH: 6.0-6.5
  • - Well-draining soil with moderate fertility

Watering Specifics:

  • - Water when the top inch of soil feels dry

Fertilizer Type:

  • - Use a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer every 2-3 weeks during the growing season
  • - Reduce fertilizing in late summer to prepare for winter dormancy

Pruning and Training:

  • - Pinch back growing tips to encourage bushiness and fuller growth
  • - Remove spent blooms to promote continuous flowering

Additional Pest Management:

  • - Monitor for common pests like aphids, whiteflies, and spider mites
  • - Watch for signs of root rot if overwatered

Blooming Indicators:

  • - Produces clusters of single or double flowers on trailing stems
  • - Blooms continuously from spring through fall

Light Requirements:

  • - Prefers partial sun to partial shade
  • - Needs protection from intense afternoon sun in hot climates

Temperature Tolerance:

  • - Thrives in temperatures between 65-80°F (18-27°C)
  • - Not frost-hardy; protect or bring indoors when temperatures drop below 40°F (4°C)

Companion Plants for Geraniums:

  • - Bacopa: This trailing plant with small, delicate flowers provides a soft cascade effect.
  • - Calibrachoa: Also known as million bells, these plants offer abundant, small petunia-like flowers.
  • - Petunias: These classic annuals come in a wide range of colors and can fill spaces quickly.
  • - Alyssum: Low-growing and fragrant, alyssum creates a beautiful carpet of tiny flowers.
  • - Lobelia: Known for its intense blue flowers, lobelia adds a pop of color and can trail or mound.

Happy Gardner

Impressed with the shipping of my live plants. GrowJoy provided excellent tracking and the shipping containers the plants arrived in are brilliant! Starter plants are happy and healthy! I am a picky garden and do online live plant shopping each spring- I will be back - they are at the top of my list.

Lovely in combinations

Planted this with a Pink Mini-Cascade and they compliment each other nicely. Next year will reorder and do something with White in the Lilac/Pink combo.

I will plant these Ville de Paris Geraniums each year from now on.
