Cranesbill Geranium Brookside Blue (gallon pot)

Description

A new addition to one of our favorite groups of perennials – Blooms are very blue-violet with pinkish tones  – flowers just glow when sun shines through them. Foliage is well-cut, lacy, and mounded attractively. This matches well in mass plantings with Viper’s Bugloss…

Cranesbill geraniums are great for tough, dry areas, spreading into a nice ground cover in spots where other plants struggle. Very drought resistant. Likes full sun, but does ok in part sun too.

In fall, foliage turns red … really lovely in masse.

Zones 4-9; gets about 8-10 inches tall. Sprawls and Spreads and is easily divided and replanted. Blooms May through June.

Cranesbill geranium leaves make a wonderful essential oil and have a rich herbal history.
