Geranium pratense - Organic perennial

Geranium pratense is a deciduous cinquefoil with a compact poll-forming habit. The leaves of this shrub are medium green, aromatic and deeply lobed. This geranium flowers abundantly from June to August with small, violet-blue flowers with a white centre. The plant prefers a position in full sun or light shade, but will also do well in the semi-shade and is happy with any well-drained soil that is not too fertile. To prevent over-sowing and encourage repeat flowering, it is advisable to cut this geranium back firmly after flowering. Stork Beak is hardy, tolerant to sea winds and air pollution. Geraniums are also good plants for bees and butterflies.
