Plant Guardians

Pelargonium ‘Red Gables’


Description:

Received by Evesham nurseryman Derrick Cook circa 1949 as a nameless specimen, Derrick subsequently named it after the garden he relocated to in 1963 with his business partner, sister & florist, Rowlatt. The previous owner of Red Gables had supplied them with cut flowers for many years. ‘Red Gables’ is a notably floriferous plant with striking rich salmon flowers and dusky bronze-red leaves.
