'Albiflorum'

Common name meadow cranesbill Family geraniaceae Life cycle perennial Flowers white, blue (late spring) Size 18" Light sun-part shade Cultural notes ordinary garden soil Seed ripens early July I received seed in a trade one year for 'Splish Splash', and got a good number of seedlings. Planted them all in a row along our driveway, expecting the promised white-and-blue-splashed flowers - but when they bloomed the next year, some were plain white, others plain blue. Still, they were nice enough, and we kept them around. They get some of the worst conditions our garden offers (hot, dry, probably also some salt), yet most of them have survived.
