It isn't really called that - but I went to an Open Garden last year, loved this geranium in the owner's border, and the kind man dug up a piece for me. I was amazed that it not only survived, but it's in flower now. He didn't know its name, as Chiltern had sent him the wrong seeds...so I've called it after the village where he lives. It's a deeper purple than the camera shows.

Yes, it's lovely. I am so impatiently waiting for my geraniums to flower!! Still got Bill Wallis flowering and Violet Vision and that's all just now.
