GARDEN GERANIUMS

For all the people who don’t know garden geraniums ; they are fantastic plants and there are so many varieties you can choose off. They are reliable, they look stunning, they are winterhardy, they are cheap and soooo very easy, and the bee’s love them. I have a few in my garden.

If you are looking for good ground covering that grows everywhere, sun, shade, dry and moist, and surpresses weeds very well once they have been growing for about 3 years, they you need the Geranium macrorrhizum. He also doesn’t disappear in completely in Winter.

Flowers of the Geranium maccrorhizum, the plants flowers early in the year and flowers for a long time.

Another geranium, this is geranium sanguineum, a lot smaller than macrorrhezum but so cute and pretty, blooms for a very long time but disappears in Winter, but once the weather warms up, they are back again.

This is geranium Johnson blue, a stunner but needs more attention.

Geranium phaeum, a taller plant, airy and self seeding all over the garden, but he is not a nuisance. Attracts a lot of bee’s.

This is geranium macrorrhezum in white.

An there are so many other varieties, you can have garden geraniums flowering in your garden from Spring to Autumn.

Have a great week and thanks for stopping by.
