Pelargonium zonale (L.) L'Hér.
A key morphometric trait of Pelargonium zonale that determines the ornamental value and functional purpose of a cultivar. It is measured from the root collar to the top of the main canopy during the peak flowering phase.
In the reference 106 varieties crop Horseshoe pelargonium, where this is mentioned in the description.
Height is measured in centimeters from the soil level to the highest point of the main plant canopy, excluding flower stalks, unless otherwise specified by the research program. The optimal period for recording this measurement is the peak flowering phase, when the plant exhibits its typical habitus.
Pelargonium zonale cultivars are classified by growth type into miniature (up to 12–13 cm), dwarf (up to 18–20 cm), standard (25–40 cm), and tall (up to 1–1.5 m). The choice of height determines the area of application: compact forms are preferred for container culture, while tall forms are intended for open ground.
The height metric is an indicator of agronomic quality. Excessive stretching of the plant beyond the varietal norm indicates a deficiency of light or an excess of nitrogen fertilization. However, low-growing forms are more sensitive to damage from precipitation and wind when grown in open flower beds.
