This pretty geranium has small light green foliage that will make a subtle backdrop for the soft pink flowers in June. Combines beautifully with Hakonechola macra 'Aureola'.

'Mavis Simpson’ has pale, satiny pink flowers borne on trailing stems covering a choice mounding carpet of soft gray-green. For greatest impact, plant it on 12 in. centers. This Geranium looks just right with Origanum ‘Bristol Cross’, and Saponaria ‘Max Frei’.
