A multitude of May-to-frost 2" soft-blue flowers add the same joyful rambunctiousness to border or container as its award-winning ?parent? Rozanne, but in a neater, lower (to 8") and less spreading way. PSh/M PPAF

Naturally occurring sport of favorite Geranium ‘Rozanne’, this a more compact, mounding form with shorter internodes, 24-30” wide and 12-18” tall. The flowers are a lavender blue with red-purple venation and repeat over a long season from May until frost! Full sun in all but hottest climates where it appreciates some afternoon shade. Average soils with decent drainage with medium moisture. If plants look rough in summer, cut back to rejuvenate. Attracts butterflies; critter resistant.
