Angie, this is DEFINITELY 'Rozanne'! Not only did it come with that label, I looked it up in my Hardy Geranium book to make sure. What the other one is, I have no idea as yet, but I don't mind at all, it's very pretty and I like it, so it can remain anonymous if it's not 'Buxton's Variety'. Thanks Sarah, it's one of my favourite Geraniums!

OOOhhhh er! thats strange, as i have seen this listed as Buxtons variety in loads of places and another one which looks very simular to the other one you have - but maybe a bit bluer listed as 'Rozanne' - i would really like to get to the bottom of it Spritz, as i am having a bit of a 'discussion' with the bloke who sold me this plant at the moment. i do love it, but i paid extra because he has listed it a 'china blue' in colour. and his explanation is that origananlly it was named 'Buxtons blue' and the name got changed to 'Buxtons variety' because it is not a true blue. my arguement with him is that he knew this when listing and still advertised it as 'china blue'. - which is what i paid extra for because as we all know true blue flowers are hard to come by. he also sent me another variety that i ordered at the same time 'Kashmir purple' which was dead! so i asked for my money back (meaning the Kashmir) but also pointed out the the other one 'buxtons' was not as discribed and not worth the high price that i paid for a 'blue' flower. anyway to cut a long story short if there are two varieties the same but different colours 'buxtons and rozanne this might help me with my quest of a true blue flower! and my arguement with this 'Wally'! lol - i am going to go now that i have bored you with my moan for the day. - but what i will do is try to find the pic i saw of both and send them to ya Spritz.
