Does very well in pots and in a sheltered position perhaps under the eaves on a north facing wall as, like all Geraniums, it will be slightly frost tender.
It will acclimatised to Wairarapa conditions. It is not hothouse grown.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Each year it thrusts out dramatic brown speckled flowers which hang down the side of the pot on thin curved stems. A five pointed star within a circle within a large 5 pointed star which is about the golfball size ( but flat not round)
The last pic is of my parent plant.
The first two pics are of the plant that is on sale.

Nice Christmas present maybe.

Access to MacDonald Cres via The Terrace is still available.
As part of our works to repair the wastewater leak, our team came across a collapsed section of pipe which requires urgent repair. This resulted in immediate road closure, meaning we couldn't advise the public earlier.
As a part of this urgent work, a pumping truck will be on site. We will aim to keep noise down, however we expect the truck to run until 7pm.
We are working with affected residents and businesses to keep them updated on any increased noise.
We will provide an update tomorrow on the status of the road closure.
Don't head off on your Christmas road trip without making sure your car is safe with a 20 Point Vehicle Health Check for your just $40 (save $25)*
Hurry, ends on December 15th!
As part of our works to repair the wastewater leak at the intersection of Willis St and Dixon St, we need to close the western side of Dixon St.
We have found an issue that we need to investigate which requires closure of this section of the road.
We will provide an update later this afternoon.

We have successfully reduced the number of pests invading our plants, but we still need your help to eradicate this completely.
So please, no pea planting, no pea seeds and no pea straw.
This pest has the potential to destroy pea crops, so restrictions are for both commercial and residential growers. With your help, we can eradicate pea weevil completely.
If you see peas growing, get in touch: 0800 80 99 66, or biosecurity.govt.nz/peaweevil
Thanks for your support, we cannot do this without you.
