Geranium
Cranesbill
We’re talking about hardy Geraniums, not the better-known, anything-but-subtle Pelargoniums. True Geraniums are sturdy yet refined, with five-petaled flowers borne on dainty stems close to the palmately-divided leaves.
Their spectrum of colors, from cool to electric, is rivaled only by their ability to create soft mounds and flowing carpets of lush foliage in ordinary garden soil. We plant a succession of varieties to always have some in bloom from spring to fall. Our selections are easily grown and will rebloom after flowering if lightly trimmed. Most die back in winter.

A healthy blush of pink graces these plentiful pale blossoms, with a flush of magenta throughout the delicately patterned veins and along the striated stems.
Found in the wild on the Isle of Walney, and cultivated since the 18th century, this long blooming, large flowered Geranium provides a softening effect wherever its planted. The small rounded leaves are divided into segments and deeply toothed lobes, casting a fine textured air and a last hurrah as russet, orange and red emblazon their surfaces in autumn.
Blooms March–October.
Size: 10" high x 2' 0" wide.
Hardy to zone 5.
