Geranium

Cranesbill

We’re talking about hardy Geraniums, not the better-known, anything-but-subtle Pelargo­ni­ums. True Geraniums are sturdy yet refined, with 5-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: many will rebloom after flowering if lightly trimmed and most die back in winter.

Raised by Rosemary Lee of Coombland Nursery, this stylish Geranium lambertii ‘Swansdown’ and Geranium traversii offspring affords large, cupped white flowers with a faint rosy wash, carmine-colored veins plus ruby-red basal blotches, which surround dark purple stamens. Lobed, nearly round smoky green leaves emphasize bronze accents and a spiffy, soft-to-the-touch mottled surface. Evergreen in warmer locales, ‘Coombland’s White’s easy-care, low mounding habit can lodge beneath roses, tumble down steps and embellish a walkway.

Blooms May–August

Size: 10" – 15" high x 18" wide.
