    A clumping perennial, forming mounds of soft green, 7 lobed leaves. In spring and summer, long, slender stems of reflexed, saucer shaped, translucent white flowers (2cm) are produced. The phaeums are among the easiest of the Cranesbills to grow tolerating quite dry and dense shade. This is a superb addition to their ranks with the flowers being somewhat larger than your typical G. phaeum.
