Geraniums, also known as Crane's Bill, refer to two types of plants in general gardening - Greenhouse Geraniums (officially Pelargoniums) and hardy perennial Geraniums. This variety falls under the latter category and is easy to grow, making it a great addition to any garden border. The Genus is vast, ranging from small alpines to large perennials. These plants thrive in most conditions, except for very wet and boggy areas, and can tolerate full sun to semi-shade. They mainly flower from spring to late summer and have a low growth habit, making them ideal for ground cover and front of the border. For vigorous varieties, trimming back after the first flowering can encourage regrowth and a second flowering. In winter, a good mulch will provide the plant with all it needs to shoot away in the spring.
