Okay, so I'm running out of different ways of describing all the subtly different cranesbill varieties! This cultivar has beautifully veined flowers over slightly glossy foliage, and blooms with the main flush of cranesbills, in late May and early June. According to this page, this is really another oxonianum hybrid, and not an endressii cultivar. Certainly the foliage is very much like our Claridge Druce plants in shape, if not in exact color and luster.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston.
