R. Gubler, Switzerland. "Enormous florets of pure lilac, upper petals slightly darker. Plum markings." This is not a very accurate description. I would call the blotches cherry and purple with heavy dark veins. The flowers are not really enormous, but it is a pretty plant in full flower.

Pelargonium 'Splendide'
Photo by Donn C. Reiners

A scandent shrub with gray hairy pinnate leaves and flowers that have red upper petals slightly streaked with white, pure white lower petals and an almost black central blotch. 'Splendide' is best grown in a greenhouse or conservatory, but can be grown outside if protected from rain and temperatures below 40 degrees F. Prune carefully and water sparingly. It is a glorious sight when in full flower. 24" wide x 12" high.
