Pelargonium 'Tikpink' (Antik Series) syn. Pelargonium 'Antik Pink'

 

Pelargonium 'Antik Pink' (Zonal)

Pelargoniums are popular plants often seen in bedding schemes or in summer hanging baskets. They are mostly shrubby perennials requiring a sunny position and frost free conditions. There are four main groups, 'ivy leaved', with an attractive trailing habit, 'scented leaved' with pleasant aromatic flowers, 'regal' with large, richly coloured flowers and 'zonal' which have leaves with a band of contrasting colour. The 'Antik' series are climbing zonal pelargoniums, that can reach up to 2m.tall, and bearing masses of flowers all Summer. Can be trained up a framework, or trellis, for maximum effect. In one season they grow, typically, to 75 cms.,but if overwintered in a frost-free emvironment (eg. a greenhouse) the next season they may grow up to 2m. 'Antik Pink' bears pink flowers

Planting Outdoors Spring

From Late Spring TO Early Summer

Plant out pelargoniums from late Spring onwards in bedding schemes, setting them in ordinary well-drained garden soil and in full sun.

 

Propagation by cuttings

From Mid Summer TO Late Summer

Take 3 inch long tip cuttings in mid-Summer for standards, in late Summer for large bush types. Smaller plants can be obtained from cuttings taken from the over-wintered plants in early spring. Insert individually into 2.5 inch pots of peat and sand (equal parts) or seed compost. Leave on a greenhouse bench covered with paper for 7 - 10 days. When rooted, pot on as necessary.
