Geranium macrorrhizum Bevan’s variety

£5.50

The Bigroot Cranesbills are superb, easy-care perennials that grow practically anywhere. Plants form a spreading mound of large, fragrant green leaves, bearing deep magenta-pink flowers in early summer. A great choice for massing as a groundcover, or edging the border. Clumps are easily divided in early spring or fall. Drought and heat tolerant. Will even tolerate dry shade, with the occasional summer watering.
