Geranium ‘Starman’


Dwarf Cranesbill

 USDA Zone: 5-9

Plant number: 1.229.770


This long-blooming Cranesbill has a compact, mounding form that makes it perfect along the front edge of a border, growing from a wall or in the rock garden as well as in mixed containers. Clusters of flowers are deep pink with purple markings in the centre of each petal that form an interesting star pattern. The plant is truly loaded with flowers in early summer, continuing to bloom for many weeks. Trim back in midsummer if blooming begins to wane. Easily divided in spring or early autumn.
