REAL Geraniums

These are hardy perennials, not the annual geraniums....which are really pelargoniums, not geraniums! Lovely rounded plants with early summer bloom. Geraniums come in pinks, blues, violet & white.The foliage of some geraniums turn a scarlet red in the fall. Other types are call 'scented' geraniums and their foliage is very fragrant (not like smelly red pelargoniums). Some perennial geraniums are called 'cranesbill,' which refers to the seed head which it resembles.
Gorgeous color! flowers are small, about 1" across, but plants are loaded! A ball of color. These plants are best used in a group of 3, or spaced throughout the garden. They would work well as an edging plant too.
