Calliope® Medium Bright Rose Geranium

Calliope® Medium Bright Rose is a pink-and-rose bicolor interspecific geranium with a mounding habit.

[Syngenta product details](https://www.syngentaflowers.com/ams/product/flower/70087141) ## Placement Give this selection full sun or part sun and allow enough space for its mature width. Syngenta identifies it as pollinator friendly and heat loving, and recommends Calliope Medium for medium-sized pots. The bicolor rose flowers can add a bright focal point among plants with similar light and watering needs. ## Maintenance Use fertile, well-drained soil. In containers, check the soil surface regularly and water when it begins to dry; established garden beds need a thorough soak during extended dry periods. Remove spent flowers as they fade to keep the display tidy.
