Pelargonium plant height

Pelargonium L'Hér. ex Ait.

The plant height of Pelargonium is a key morphological trait in breeding and variety testing, determining the classification of cultivars by habit and the guidelines for their agronomic use.

In the reference 37 varieties crop Geranium, where this is mentioned in the description.

In professional variety testing, Pelargonium height is measured from the substrate level to the highest point of the plant's natural position during the period of active flowering. According to international protocols, the trait is evaluated both in centimeters and on a 1 to 9 scale, which characterizes the intensity of the trait.

Zonal Pelargonium cultivars are traditionally classified into groups based on habit: microminiature, miniature, dwarf, deacon, and standard, the height of which can exceed one meter. The choice of group determines the plant's intended use, ranging from compact forms for windowsills to large solitary specimens in landscape design.

The actual height of Pelargonium is influenced by both genetic characteristics and growing conditions, including light intensity and mineral nutrition. Atypical increase in height and internode elongation indicate deviations in agrotechnics, and height is directly correlated with the mechanical strength of the stems.
