Geranium pratense

UK native. Blue flowers, which are veined lilac, are produced on a tall rather open plant with mid-green deeply-lobed leaves. Jun-Jul. H75cm S45cm.

Care Instructions

Grow in any, moderately fertile soil apart from waterlogged soils. Full sun or partial shade is best but can also tolerate shade. It seeds around and can become a nuisance in smaller gardens but is great for naturalizing in rough grass or at the edge of woodland. Cut back after flowering, particularly if you want to stop it self-seeding.
