Geranium sylvaticum ‘Album’
Wood Cranesbill |
USDA Zone: 2-9 |
Plant number: 1.230.550
The Border selections of Cranesbill are valuable fillers for colour in early to mid summer. This early bloomer forms a bushy mound of green leaves, with a pretty display of white cup-shaped flowers in late spring. Prune plants back hard after blooming, to rejuvenate the foliage. One of the better selections for summer foliage. Clumps may be easily divided in spring or fall. Appreciates a moist site. Ideal for the woodland garden.
