In the garden
Pelargonium 'Klegany' is a cultivated selection from the genus Pelargonium (family Geraniaceae). Members of this genus include a wide range of growth forms and many garden selections bred for extended summer flowering, and the group has a long history of use as container and bedding plants in temperate regions. Plants of this group typically perform best where they receive good light and free-draining compost; many growers place them in a sunny, sheltered position or move them under cover where winters are cold. Pelargonium species are noted for an extended flowering season, and Pelargonium 'Klegany' will reliably flower in the UK between June and October. They are also commonly moved indoors or into a conservatory over winter to avoid hard frosts when required. In a UK garden, cultivars like 'Klegany' are suited to tubs, window boxes and summer borders where a defined period of continuous flowering is wanted. Keep an eye on irrigation and give a light feed during the flowering months to support repeat bloom. Expect flowering on Pelargonium 'Klegany' throughout the June-to-October period in typical UK conditions.
