Geranium x magnificum
at Digging Dog
Cranesbill
We’re talking about hardy Geraniums, not the better-known, anything-but-subtle Pelargoniums. True Geraniums are sturdy yet refined, with five-petaled flowers borne on dainty stems close to the palmately-divided leaves.
Their spectrum of colors, from cool to electric, is rivaled only by their ability to create soft mounds and flowing carpets of lush foliage in ordinary garden soil. We plant a succession of varieties to always have some in bloom from spring to fall. Our selections are easily grown and will rebloom after flowering if lightly trimmed. Most die back in winter. Geranium x magnificum 
The strength and sturdiness of this sterile hybrid is truly magnificent. One of the most reliable of all Geraniums, it has ample dark violet-blue flowers and soft, shaggy, deeply cut foliage that tints red and yellow in the autumn.
A late spring and early summer bloomer, it makes a perfect companion for flowering shrubs such as Philadelphus or Viburnum. Enjoy it as a specimen in a large rock garden or en masse at the edge of a walkway or perennial border.
Blooms May–June. Size: 18" high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4. Geranium x magnificum (P-0203)
Each $6.50
