Geranium 'Black Velvet Rose'
2002 AAS Bedding Plant Award Winner
The unusual bicolor leaf pattern distinguishes 'Black Velvet Rose' from all other hybrid geraniums. Each leaf has a black center with a green leaf edge. The exceptionally dark foliage contrasts with the bright rose florets and each floret has a small white eye. 'Black Velvet Rose' proved to be heat tolerant, flowering freely throughout the growing season. A strong plant, 'Black Velvet Rose' can be 10-14 inches tall and spread 14 to 18 inches depending upon available nutrients and water. Best performance will occur in full sun. 'Black Velvet Rose' is perfect for container culture.
