Insights
G. Scarlet Tempest is a sterile hybrid, so produces a mass of larger than average flowers over an impressively long period. The first flush begins in mid-spring until early summer. The plant takes a breather and then starts again, going on to flower uninterrupted well into the autumn, with slightly smaller blooms.
