  An ivy leaf pelargonium with mauve flowers, which is very free flowering. Great for windowboxes, pots on the patio or even hanging baskets. Like all pelargoniums it will happily flower until the first frosts.
  
  'La France' is available as a collection of three plants in 7.5cm (3in) peat pots and dispatched directly from our specialist grower of rarer pelargoniums.
  
  As soon as you receive the collection you will need to pot them up into larger pots or plant them in to their final pots straight away. A great hot tip is to feed your plants every other day with a weak solution of a potash-rich liquid fertiliser, such as Tomorite. You'll be rewarded with masses of flowers throughout the summer on plants about 30-40cm tall.
