Geranium - Southcombe Double They do best in sun, but will tolerate some degree of shade. There are only a few double-geraniums in cultivation and don't look like a Geranium at first glance. This plant would look wonderful in a pot on a sun-drenched porch and is also deer resistant. Southcombe Double blooms almost non-stop throughout the summer, into fall. Geraniums are grown in almost any soil as long as it is not wet. |
