My boss gave me this plant back in the spring. I\u2019ve tried Martha Washington geraniums before, but I\u2019m not sure I ever tried a Regal geranium. I have been extremely surprised by this plant\u2013it has had three flushes of bloom sitting on my desk in fairly low light (about 18\u2033 from a north-facing window). The only care I\u2019ve given it is a few pieces of Jobe\u2019s organic plant spikes and consistent watering. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The flowers are spectacular shades of magenta, mauve, maroon, and purple. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
