Why Gardeners Love the Reach Out Mix

The Reach Out Formula Mix was bred for superior performance in hanging and upright containers. It offers compact but spreading plants with excellent flower coverage and heat tolerance. The foliage has the classic ivy-leaf shape, which adds visual texture, and the mix includes reds, pinks, lavenders, and bi-colors—all on strong stems that hold up well in wind or sun.

These geraniums bloom continuously from late spring through the heat of summer and into early fall, producing flower clusters that cascade elegantly. The self-cleaning habit reduces the need for deadheading, which means more time to enjoy your garden and less time spent maintaining it.

Easy to Grow from Seed

Starting Ivy Geraniums from seed might sound intimidating, but with a little patience, it's a rewarding process. Germination typically takes 10–14 days in warm (70–75°F) conditions with humidity and light. Once seedlings are established, they grow quickly and are easy to transplant into 4-inch pots or directly into baskets or containers.

For best results:

  • Start seeds indoors 12–16 weeks before your last frost

  • Provide bottom heat for improved germination

  • Use a light grow mix and gently press seeds into the surface

  • Keep soil moist but not soggy

These geraniums are slow to bloom from seed but well worth the wait. Many gardeners who start them early enjoy stunning results by late spring.

Perfect for Containers and Hanging Baskets

Thanks to their naturally trailing growth, Reach Out Ivy Geraniums are ideal for:

  • Hanging baskets on porches or patios

  • Mixed container gardens for added texture

  • Window boxes

  • Edging flower beds

Combine them with trailing lobelia, verbena, or petunias for a show-stopping, overflowing look. Their thick foliage and consistent blooming make them a reliable favorite for gardeners who want color and elegance without constant fuss.
