Geranium maculatum 'Espresso'

i like this one Spritz it realy shows up the flower.

This will have to go on my wish list. Very different, lovely colouring.

very nice the contrast makes it less "sweet"

I see you like hardy geraniums; so do I and this one is a must have.

Absolutely, Rbtkew. I think I may soon qualify as a National Collection owner!!!! LOL.

The trouble is that I keep spotting another which is yet again a 'must-have'! Just planted G. pratens 'Hocus-pocus' and another 'Spish-Splash'. Several more in the greenhouse growing to a decent size before finding a space for them....

Geraniums are fantastic value and this one seems to be a real winner, flowers and foliage, as Homer Simpson would say 'What more can you ask?' Except he was talking about doughnuts, lol.

I think that 'Hocus-Pocus' will be, as well - chocolate leaves, should have blue flowers with a white 'eye'. My all-time favourite, though, has to be 'Rozanne'...she flowers for months and her blooms are so pretty. :-)

Splish-splash was another of my recent Ebay buys, Spritz! No flowers yet though.

No - not for a while. But it will be worth the wait! :-)

This is lovely - i had a dark leaf one last year a bit simalr to this but it does'nt seem to have come back this year :-( oh well a good excuse to look out for this instead.

mmmm hard say for sure Spritz is'nt it...this one does look darker than the pic i have seen, but then it is hard to tell from a picture on ebay is'nt, will have to see what mine is like when it comes. i don't mind either way to be honest either would be lovely. :-)
