Famous gardener Margery Fish was once asked for the secret of gardening. She answered “The secret is, when in doubt plant a geranium!” and we agree. Hardy Geraniums are one of the easiest plants to grow and give so much back. Amazingly floriferous, great groundcover, slug and rabbit resistant, attractive to bees and not fussy on soil conditions in sun or part shade.
Geraniums were brought to Britain in the 16th century and quickly became the mainstay of the English garden. There is at least one for every garden, tall or short. Not to confused with pelargoniums, which don't survive outdoors in winter. Slug and rabbit resistant, great ground cover and not fussy on soil conditions. Hardy perennial.
