Ah yes, didn't Spritz post a blog about the 'anonymous pink Geraniums' ? I had a pretty white one years ago, think it curled up and died though! What is the name of the brilliantly magenta coloured one please on the bottom left side?

As it's cooler today I have done some weeding, also cut the G. magnificum down to a couple of inches. Hope it gives anther show of flowers before too long.

So true...an absolute must for filling borders. This is a lovely selection. I went off them for a while, but now I am really keen on them again. They take a couple of years to get going here...except Rozanne which goes mad straight away, and Bill Wallis which is a weed here.

A lovely selection , I must admit we would be quite lost without them to fill gaps , plus if we cut them down as soon as they've finished flowering we have another flush later at the end of summer ...
