Common name: Geranium Toscana 'Dolce Vita Evi Blue'

Description: Pelargonium Toscana 'Dolce Vita Evi Blue' is a striking compact zonal pelargonium offering one of the most unusual flower colours in the Toscana range — a soft, cool lilac-blue that is quite rare among pelargoniums. The flowers are produced in generous trusses throughout summer on neat, compact plants that perform reliably across a wide range of conditions. The cool blue-lilac tones complement warmer pinks, reds, and oranges particularly well in mixed container schemes, and the strong weather resistance of the Toscana series ensures a long and consistent display.
