Our tips

Calliope® is where performance meets simplicity. Thanks to its natural drought tolerance, you can water less often, while its sheer vigor ensures minimal care. It’s an exceptional geranium, bred to guarantee stunning results for every gardener.

How to take care

Location: It’s all about the light

Calliope® is a sun-loving plant. To ensure its colors reveal their full intensity, choose a spot with at least 4 hours of direct sunlight per day. It will thrive just as well in terrace pots as it will in garden beds.

Watering: The right balance

Key tip: Ensure good drainage. Calliope® dislikes standing water. Let the topsoil dry out before watering again. To avoid disease, always water at the base—keep the leaves and blooms dry. For best results, water in the early morning or late evening.

Nutrition: Powering the bloom

Keep your Calliope® blooming brilliantly from April to October. Simply add liquid flowering plant fertilizer to your water every two weeks to give it the energy it needs.

Maintenance: Keep it glowing

Calliope® is self-cleaning, but removing old flower stems at the base encourages even more blooms. It’s a simple way to stimulate new growth and keep your display looking flawless all season long.

Bring color to your life, simply.

Growing Calliope® is about rediscovering the simple joy of gardening.

Easy-going and low-maintenance, it asks for very little to give so much: a visually spectacular and long-lasting outdoor space.

Whether in garden beds, pots, or hanging baskets, place the root ball in a well-loosened hole, then simply fill and firm the soil around the base. Aim to plant in late April in a sheltered, sunny spot.

Water generously at first, then keep the soil lightly damp for the first weeks to encourage root growth. Once established, water on a regular basis. View tips >
