Variety traits
Pelargonium peltatum (L.) L'Hér.
The plant height of ivy-leaved pelargonium is defined as the distance from the soil surface to the top of the plant, with the total length of the flexible trailing shoots recorded separately.
In the reference 24 varieties crop Ivy-leaf geranium, where this is mentioned in the description.
When evaluating this trait in breeding practice, the height of the above-ground canopy is approximately 25 cm, while the total length of the shoots varies in the range of 70–120 cm. Due to the trailing growth habit of the plant, the quantitative measure of plant height often reflects its compactness in a pot or hanging basket.
Managing the habit of pelargonium requires regular pinching of the tips to stimulate branching. Height control is closely related to nutrient balance: excess nitrogen leads to intensive vegetative growth at the expense of flowering, which may also depend on the volume of the container selected for planting.
