We set this smaller cranesbill in our rock garden, where it got overpowered by a wild myrtle spurge. When I finally cut its rangy stalks back, there it was, blooming away a bit sadly. We'll have to relocate it to where it can shine next year.

Visitors to this page have left the following commentsDiane Granger | May 30, 2017 | I'm looking for a Geranium type plant that is so popular in Germany. The Germans plant them in window boxes and they bush out and cascade over the boxes and planters. I lived in Germany and used them yearly but I can't find anything like it here in the states. It's a small flower usually in bright pink and red. Can you help me? Sounds nice, but I can't help with identification. |
