Variety description

10 August 2026

In professional floriculture, the name Polaris is found as part of trademarks. In particular, the Re-Al® Polaris variety is characterized as a zonal Pelargonium with bright red semi-double flowers.

There is also a variety called Ville de Polaris, which belongs to the ivy-leaved Pelargonium and is described as a plant with white flowers, distinguished by abundant flowering and self-cleaning ability.

The name Polaris is used in the industry for different types of plants and is more of a commercial trade name than a strict breeding designation for one specific zonal Pelargonium variety.
