| | Geranium cinereum | |  | This low-growing selection forms a trailing mat of grey-green leaves. The soft-pink flowers have a deep purple eye and veins, appearing on and off from early summer. Terrific in the rock garden, alpine trough, wall or for edging a border or pathway. Shear plants by half in midsummer if flowering stops, to encourage bushy growth and repeat blooming in autumn. Easily divided in spring. Received a Royal Horticultural Society Award of Garden Merit (1993/2006). | 11C-S |  |  |  |  |  |

| | Geranium pratense | |  | This perennial certainly does have a chocolatey look! This Geranium pratense hybrid has rich, dark bronze leaves and an upright habit, with blue-purple flowers covering the top of the habit, starting in early summer. Compared to older genetics, ‘Boom Chocolatta’ is more vigorous, and has a very refined habit. Use it as a contrast with green-leaved plants in your sun garden! | 11C-S |  |  |  |  |  |
