Common name cranesbill Family geraniaceae Life cycle perennial (Z4-9) Flowers blue (late spring) Size 14" Light sun-part shade Cultural notes ordinary garden soil The purple foliage on this cranesbill nicely offsets the blue flowers. I picked this up at the Hardy Plant Society's spring plant sale one year, and enjoyed it for two full seasons. Unfortunately, it did not return for a third.

Full, rich growth by October

Next April - new growth emerges dark as ever

In our garden, this plant grows in the following area: orchard nursery area
