Pelargonium 'Vancouver Centennial'

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial #overwinteringindoors. #bloomingnow

Looking great Diane. I saved one little cutting from mine but it’s struggling a bit

Thanks very much. I started this in the garden and brought it indoors. I have a bigger one too. Hope yours perks up for you. 🤞🤞 @gjones

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial-dwarf #foliagefriday

Looks fresh and colourful. I am going to leave mine outside this winter but I’ll take a small cutting for next year.

Even flowerless it's beautiful! 💘😍

Fabulous foliage! 👌

Thanks ladies. This is my small one. I have one to bring indoors that is not too big yet. I do love the foliage better than the flowers. 😍😍 @gjones @ShelleySnyder @italydiva

Lovely foliage 💚💚💕💕

My pleasure! 💘😍

Thanks Chris. My favourite pelargonium 😍😍 @midnightgardener

Very pretty 🥰 I love foliage plants 🥰

Thanks so much Barbara. I have 2 more of these and one is in a pot to overwinter indoors. 😍 Love the foliage too. 🥰 @jacaranda

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial-dwarf #mybabyplant #firstbloomcoming

Love it!💘😍

Thanks Shelley. This was a tiny offshoot in Spring. I potted it up then decided to put it right into the garden. Such a cutie. 😍 @ShelleySnyder

Very welcome! 💘😍

Those leaves are so special 💚🤎💚

I totally agree. 🤎💚 @kez001uk

Diane did you see the photos of the hail storm that went thru Innisfail Alberta yesterday. The hail was the size of softballs and the damage is horrible. I cringe every time we get a thunderstorm warning!

Oh dear. I must not have been watching the noon news too carefully. My best friend lives in Calgary. I worry about hail as well as tornadoes. Will watch tonight’s news or check out the weather channel. Thanks for the update 🙏 @gjones

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial-dwarf #lovethefoliage

Wow!💘😍

Looking very healthy and colourful

Amazing 😍

Thanks lovely ladies. This is the largest of my 3 plants. These have to be my favourites as I love the foliage so much. 😍😍 @ShelleySnyder @gjones @sieveheadsarah

My pleasure! 💘😍

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial-dwarf #nowinthegarden #anotherinplanter

I have this one and I just love it! Don't you! 💘😍

I sure do Shelley. I have another larger one in a pot out front. They have amazing foliage and pretty flowers. We had to take this out of another pot where it was crowded. Now it can shine 👍😍😍 @ShelleySnyder

I have two in a pot with nothing else! 💘😍

That is the way to go. They look best by themselves. 😍😍 @ShelleySnyder

Some plants do preform their best solo! 💘😍

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial-dwarf #firstblooms #wispyblooms #foliagefriday

Beautiful colour - mine are still indoors as we had a risk of frost last night. It got down to 2C!

Oh dear. It got down to 7 degrees here so I brought in my mandevillas. Nights still seem so cool. 🤷‍♀️ @gjones

#foliagefriday #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial #dwarf-pelargonium

Those leaves are hard to beat aren’t they 😋

They sure are very special. Great foliage makes the plant so much lovelier ♥️💚 @kez001uk

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial #boughtmore My overwintered one was too leggy so for just over 3 dollars I bought 2 more. Have some propagating from leggy plant. Love the foliage on these. 😍

I just got a couple of these yesterday! Needless to say I love it! 💘😍

What’s not to love. The foliage is beautiful 💚❤️ @ShelleySnyder

And the flowers are stellar! 😂💘😍

These are wonderful 🌞

Thanks. Was so happy to find them again this year. My favourite foliage. 💚♥️ @sunlovin

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #startingtogetcolourback #lostmysecondone #overwinteringdownstairs

Mine looks about the same as yours. I have to clean mine up and prune it back a bit in a month or so.

I will have to do the same. It is a shame my other one did not make it. Still waiting for a miracle though. How much should it be cut back? I am new to this. 🤷‍♀️ @gjones. I have a Mum plant looking pretty good in front of my pelargonium. 🤞

It's hard to explain but if I have some taller stems, I cut it back leaving about 3 or 4 stem joints. It makes the plant produce more leaves and fills it out more. Yours looks quite lush so I'm not sure I'd cut it back much.

If you want more of these they're quite easy to propagate. Find a leaf joint with a few leaves, cut it off close to the main stem, put it in water and a bright location for about a month. They'll root quite easily.

Thanks so much. Just saw this post. This helps a lot. Thought I would have a lot but I lost the one. Wish my daughter liked these but they are not her favourite. 🤷‍♀️ @gjones

It’s looking wonderful! That lime green is 😍😍😍

Thanks Kerry. Will be so nice when it can be outdoors 💚 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr that time is edging closer 😁

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial #lotsoffoliage #oneplantnotdoingwell #overwinteringindoors

Really is looking gorgeous with that lime green dominating 💚

Thanks Kerry. Lack of sunlight in the room has faded the red. The plant behind is my burgundy pelargonium. I like the extra green for a change. 💚 @kez001uk

Looking great! The red on ours has faded too but it'll return in a month or so.

Thanks so much. This was totally green a month ago so the red is already starting to return slowly on this one. 👍😍 @gjones

Lovely and healthy colours💚❤️💚

Looking very good, despite fading a bit. I’m sure it will come back red when you can give it more light as it warms up. I’ve always struggled to keep my pelargoniums indoors over winter as they always die, so I keep them in the polytunnel outside to fend for themselves! They hate it but they seem to pull through… just!

Thanks so much. One of mine did not make it but the other 3 are looking good. Glad the polytunnel is working. With our snow and cold temps it will be a couple of months to wait for any warmth. Love seeing everyone’s plants popping up on gtags. Can’t wait for all my new bulbs to poke through the soil. 👍😍 @richard.spicer.7906

Thanks so much. So happy it is doing so well. 💚♥️💚 @rikkie

@hkyfvr I didn’t even notice there was another plant behind 😜 they’re so well colour matched 😛💚

I took the photo and did not notice either. They blend so well together 🤣💚 @kez001uk

Hopefully it will come very quickly Diane, and looking to seeing all your bulbs 😊

Here is the photo Katy @gjones. After I saw yours I checked on mine and realized I had overwatered one of them. Had to repot it this morning. Hope it will survive. I have to get used to the fact that they need less water in the cold months. First time overwintering geraniums.

It’s big and looking great! I’m sure the other one will recover as they’re pretty tough😍 Thanks for posting!

Thanks so much Katy. You are very welcome also. I am sure it will do well. I just need to go easy on the watering. 🤦‍♀️🤷‍♀️ @gjones

#upclose #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #overwinteringindoors #dwarf-pelargonium #lovelyfoliage

Oh my that is lovely foliage!💘😍

Gorgeous foliage!

Love the colours so much 😍😍

Thanks Shelley. I really love its shape and colours. ❤️💚 @ShelleySnyder

Thanks Angela. So glad it is indoors now to stay safe during the Winter 🤞🤞🤞 @italydiva

Thanks so much Kerry. They are such special leaves. I love the colours too. Hope yours are doing well. 😍 @kez001uk

Very welcome!💘😍

Such pretty colors💚💗

Thanks so much. 😍 @crabby58

@hkyfvr there doesn’t seem to be another like it. So unique 😍 mine are packed away in the greenhouse, just in time for our first 0° night of the year 🥶

That is good to hear. We were below zero last night and again tonight. So glad mine are warm and toast inside. I may not find them again. 🤞🤞💚❤️ @kez001uk

#pelargonium #dwarf-vancouver-centennial #dividedintotwopots #freeplant

Can’t get enough of those leaves 😍🍁😍

Thanks Kerry. Now I have 2 pots of them 👍😊 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr I missed the hashtag 😯 was it easy to divide?

Yes it really was. One turned out better but the other just needs to fill in a bit. Now have 2 to save. Yay. 👍😊 @kez001uk

#veiny #interestingfoliage

Thanks Eileen 😊 @emch

Looks perfect!

Thanks so much. Like having the two smaller plants. 😊 @gjones

#pelargonium #vancouvercentennial #dwarfplant #overwinteringindoors #lovetinybabyoffshoot #ontopright

One of my favorite geraniums!💘😍

#interestingfoliage

Mine too. Thanks Shelley ❤️💚 @ShelleySnyder

It sure is. Thanks @emch

Very welcome!💘😍

That's a beauty.

Thanks Susan. Really do love this one ❤️💚 @novicegardenlover

Incredible! Love the colors, the shape of the leaves, the fullness. Love. It. All!

Thanks very much Jackie. I love the foliage colour and shape. They are shaped like maple leaves. Very “Canadian”. 💚❤️🍁🍁 @jmlincoln

Beautiful! I trimmed mine up, split them into smaller plants and now they're enjoying the warmth of the sunporch.

Thanks Katy. Great idea. May divide mine too. 👍😊 @gjones

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #theflowerhasbabyleavesatthebase #havenotseenthisbefore

#fabboo

That’s adorable! Haven’t seen it before either 🤩

It is like the plant produced a pup. There is nothing on the other flowers. Pretty cute for sure. ❤️💚 @kez001uk

You never know what plants are going to do. 🤪 @emch

@hkyfvr your plants really have a mind of their own this year 😂 it’s multiplying in mysterious ways 🤣

They really do. Plants are taking over the world Kerry. 🤣😂🤪🤪 @kez001uk

I wish they would, @hkyfvr ! #curiouscases

@hkyfvr a plant world sounds like a good world to me 💚

After I said that I thought the same thing. They would get things fixed up that we have messed up. The planet would be much healthier. 💚 @kez001uk @emch

@hkyfvr let’s be honest, most things could do a better job than we’ve done 😞 we seem hellbent on systematically killing everything and ultimately ourselves 😔 that really is a depressing thought out loud 😜😅

It really is. The longer we are on the planet the worse it gets. I hope our children and grandchildren can clean up some of our mess. I worry about what the world will be like for them when they grow up. 😞🙁🥺 @kez001uk

#pelargonium #dwarf-vancouver-centennial #lotsofblooms #wispyflowers

Now that’s impressive, is it just one plant?

Wow ❤💚🤎

Thanks Sarah. Yes it is just one plant. Going to overwinter it indoors as it is such a great plant. 👍😍 #sieveheadsarah

Thanks so much Jane. Really so happy with this plant. Does not seem to mind the oppressive heat we have had lately 👍😍 @pelly

Sarah, while I was looking out the front window today at my plants, I suddenly remembered that the Vancouver pelargonium started out as 2 very small plants. My memory is not the greatest at times but I do remember that. Sorry about that 🤪🤪 @sieveheadsarah

Ah no problem Diane, I have one and it’s not even a quarter of the size of one of yours, I’ve had mine 2 years now and also bring it in for the winter, I’d be so upset if I lost it to the cold weather.

I don’t blame you. I am bringing mine bringing mine indoors as well. 👍😍 @sieveheadsarah

Looking great Diane!

Thanks Katy. Very happy with it. 👍😍 @gjones

#pelargonium #geranium #vancouvercentennialgeranium #morebloomsnow

Looks colourful and healthy - it's a great plant isn't it?

Thanks so much. It really is lovely. I will have to bring it indoors for the winter. 👍😍 @gjones

Yes I have to bring mine indoors in late September to avoid the early frosts. I put her in the east window and she does fine until springtime.

Thanks. I will have to do that too. She is too lovely not too. 😍😍 @gjones

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouver-centennial #lovethefoliage #newbloomsagain

Beautiful leaves!

It’s looking fantastic! 😍🍁

Incredible #contrast 😍

Thanks Leslie. Love these too. Very Canadian. 🇨🇦 @lesliecloe49

Thanks so much Kerry. It has done so well. How is yours doing? You must overwinter yours. I may try. Will see how many other plants I have to do. 👍😍 @kez001uk

Thanks so much. I really like this one a lot. 👍😍 @Dragon_Warrior

Fantastic colour!

@hkyfvr I do stick mine in the greenhouse. Would be heartbroken to lose it 😜 hope you manage to overwinter yours too 🙏🏻

Will have to have it in my house with my hibiscus and others I bring inside during the winter. I have a spare bedroom I put them in. 🤞🤞 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr a plant room 😍 lucky things having their own bedroom 😛

They are spoiled for sure. The number in there is rising steadily. 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ @kez001uk

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #wispyflowers

Great foliage 🍁

Thanks. Really love the foliage too. We have to love it when we are Canadian. Lol 😁 @hebelover

Looks great

Thanks Phil. I saw the foliage and was sold on these. Cute flowers too ❤️💚❤️ @philstader

Thanks so much Jane. I think they are so cute. Different for sure ❤️💚❤️ @pelly

Really is a beautiful plant 😍

Thanks so much Kerry. It is the start of my quest for more lovely pelargonium foliage. 👍😍💗💕 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr careful, it’s an addictive quest! 😛

Love this one, I’ve had it several times. ♥️🌞

Thanks so much. It is awesome ❤️💚 @sunlovin

#pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #firstflowersblooming

Love the leaves on this type 😍

Who needs the flowers with folige like that 🤩

Thanks Alan. How true 😍❤️💚 @alan1111

Thanks Jeff. I do too. Like the maple leaf. 👍😍 @jeatacake

It’s gorgeous 🍁 love how the shape of these flowers mimic the leaves

Kerry I did not even notice that. You are so observant. That is amazing. Thanks for this. 👍😍 @kez001uk

Great one Diane. Another plant I struggle with. 🤩

Thanks so much Phil. They are very hardy and tolerant of cooler days. Maybe too warm there. 🤔🤷‍♀️ @philstader

Most welcome. Always been a favourite of mine.

@hkyfvr always welcome ☺️

#foliagefriday #pelargonium #pelargonium-vancouvercentennial #lovethefoliage

I love this one ☝🏼

Such pretty colors😘

Thanks so much. Love it too 👍❤️💚 @dadayba

Thanks so much. The colours are so awesome. 💚❤️ crabby58

Snap! 😉 yours looks so lovely with more of the green edges 😍

Yours are just as lovely if not lovelier. No comparing allowed 😉😉👍😍 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr 🤣 they can be equally beautiful distant cousins 😉🤣

Sounds good to me ❤️💚😁 @kez001uk

#pelargonium #readytobloom #wispyredflowers #lovelyfoliage

Love this foliage 😍😍😍

Thanks so much. I do too. Was surprised to find it. Had not seen one except on gtags. ❤️💚😍 @pelly

Beautiful foliage 🧡🧡💚

Such a gorgeous plant in every way 😍

Thanks so very much Chris. I love it too. So unique ❤️💚😍 @midnightgardener

Thanks very much Kerry. Really love the foliage and I know I will like the flowers. ❤️😍 @kez001uk

Ooo!! I love the shape and color of this! Beautiful!

Thanks so much. Very much like a maple leaf. 💚❤️ @jmlincoln

#pelargonium #vancouvercentennial #newtome2021

Love this, the folige 😍

Wonderful color😃

#interestingfoliage

Thanks Alan. The name was Canadian and the leaves are shaped like maple leafs so it had to come home. ❤️💚 @alan1111

Thanks so much. Canadian foliage 😍 @crabby58

Can't disagree with that logic 😆

Just had a look at the description, it’s going to be a beauty 🤎💚🤎

Thanks so much. Last summer I noticed that Katy @gjones had these and I was really impressed with the foliage. The flowers are pretty too. 🧡😍 @pelly

One of my favourites 😍 the leaves are stunning and the flowers are beautiful too. Spiky red petals, gorgeous ❤️

Thanks so much. There was not one in bloom but they had one close to it. It had spiky orange flowers. So pretty. 👍😍
