    A really unusual uniquely double flowered phaeum. A showy double row of bright plummy purple petals and in the centre the stamens appear to have been transformed into strange petaloid structures ina alimey-green to fascinating effect. A plant for partial shade wherethe slightly blotched fresh green leaves make an early foil for other spring flowers. Flowering in late April to May to about 75cm. This wonderful find was a chance seedling in the garden of Lynne Edwards in 2013. She named it after her beloved father and lifelong botanical & gardening mentor who had ghiven here her original phaeum. Not so good for insects due to its lack of stamens. fusion_separator style_type="single solid" hide_on_mobile="small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility" class="" id="" sep_color="" top_margin="" bottom_margin="" border_size="" icon="" icon_circle="" icon_circle_color="" width="" alignment="center"][/fusion_separator]

Good leafy clumps of unblotched fresh green leaves make excellent Spring foils to other plants in partial shade.

    A distinctively marked G.phaeum with pretty almost white petals surrounding a central violet ring. Flowers take on a slight pink blush as they age. Good, vigorous clumps of bright green foliage send up leafy stems topped with small but showy flowers from late April. 45cm. Phaeums enjoy a semi-shaded position and provide a valuable source of pollen and nectar for early insects.

    Great value throughout the year. Bertie Crug forms a low spreading mound of dark bronze-tinted shiny green leaves over which a long succession of pale pink flowers is produced. Good at the edges of beds or in a rock garden planting this is a reliable doer for full sun. Cooler Autumn winter brings a rich cherry red colour to the foliage. 15cm spreading.

    A really nice very dark-leaved G.pratense with white flowers heavily rayed in lavender. The flowers aren't startling white as you find in say a G.sanguineum Album, largely owing to the influence of the veins, an influence that can be quite pronounced at some times of day. The handsome deeply divided foliage is dark purple on dark purple stems in a shortish 30cm mound. Best in full sun, but not too dry, or in more shade if you don't mind the foliage developing more green. like all G,pratense it is prone to mildew after flowering and is best trimmed then to rejuvenate. 35cm high by 45cm wide. Arose from the original batch of Victor Reiter seed grown by Robin Moss. fusion_separator style_type="single solid" hide_on_mobile="small-visibility,medium-visibility,large-visibility" class="" id="" sep_color="" top_margin="" bottom_margin="" border_size="" icon="" icon_circle="" icon_circle_color="" width="" alignment="center"][/fusion_separator]

    A new colour break within Geranium phaeum with unusual creamy coloured buds and newly opened petals which develop into multi-tonal lilac-pink rayed flowers. The effect s enhanced by the maroon flush on the pedicels and calyx. The leaves are boldly marked with a maroon star. Good for sun or shade and excellent for early pollinators. Flowering May-June. 80cm. If all this wasn't persuasive enough, this variety was raised by Beth Chatto.

    ( G. libani x G. peloponnesiacum) An Alan Bremner hybrid. One of the first things to note about this hybrid is its mostly evergreen habit. Fresh leaves begin to grow well before Christmas so that there is a good clump of fresh shiny leaves present by the new year. The flowers come in April and are large soft floppy discs in lavender with nicely contrasting red calyces. Altogether a very nice variety that is not much seen.

    Large, circular, pure white flowers (4.5cm, 2in). That is the petal overlap to give a bold effect with pleasantly undulating edges. The centres are pale, the anthers inconspicuous, but the many bee lines are picked out in deep papal purple creating the ghost of blush centre. The outer third remains pure white. A lovely thing, a bit like G.'Kashmir White' on steroids. Collected by Derrick Cook in 1984 in Narang province, Nepal. 30-45cm. Mature leaves are very large. Introduced by National collection holder Andrew Norton.

    Raised by Jim Haunch, nurseryman and holder of the National Collection of Geranium phaeum and given to us by Jennifer Harmer as 'a very good do-er'. This is a cross between G.phaeum 'Samobor' to which it is like a large version, and G.phaeum 'Golden Spring'. It has plum purple flowers above leaves that are well marked throughout the season with maroon blotches, but show a paler centre in the early season. It was described by the raiser as "..a good mound former with leaves of a creamy yellow to almost white in the centre, red streaks and brown blotches on each side of the central vein of the leaf blades and a green with very pale almost white splash marks near the leaf tips. The flowers are a plum-purple, contrasting well with the leaves.".

    (syn. Geranium 'Verguld Saffier') This variety is a cross between 'Ann Folkard' and wallichianum 'Buxton's variety', inheriting characteristics of both. It has the yellow leaves of the former, longer lasting than the parent, with flowers in a pinky-blue produced all throughout the summer. Its AGM says it is undoubtedly a good cultivar, but anyone who knows me, knows my thoughts on plants that pair yellow leaves and pink flowers so I'll shut up now. It has a low growing, sprawling habit, making it ideal for the front of the border. It is a little smaller than 'Ann Folkard'. It is reliable, but likes some shade to do its best. Originally found as a seedling in Hans Kramer's de Hessenhof nursery in about. 1994 40 X 110cm

    Don't be confused by the name of this Geranium, it is named after a house, not one of it's characteristics. The flowers are some of the darkest of the group, being a rich pinky purple at the centre fading out towards pink at the edge with a white edge. Strong bee lines complete the design. Not quite as striking as Blueberry Ice, but still very nice indeed. Good for growing in dry shady situations where many plants would struggle. Raised by repeated selection of seedling forms by Lionel Bacon, past President of the Alpine Garden Society. Named after his garden.

    A dusky pink spring flowering Geranium. Typical of its parents, G.phaeum and G.reflexum, it has sprays of long-nosed, slightly reflexed petaled flowers with a white eye and a ring of smoky blue eye-liner. Generous clumps of large palmate and lobed leaves are handsomely marked with strong maroon blotches and stand well in shade, even if dry. Even better is the lovely golden hue the leaves take on in early Spring before greening up later. Really brightens up a shady corner. Originated in the French nursery of its namesake. 45cm tall, spreading indefinitely. Selected by Madame Claudine Dupont.

It has small lustrous mauve flowers, 1cm wide with petals quite widely spaced. It has a lovely little curly puce pink style and flushes of magenta bee-lines. It really comes into its own when established and flowering en masse when the effect is quite charming. 45-90cm. An Alan Bremner cross.

    Golden Spring foliage becomes suffused with green and is marbled with a maroon, roughly heart-shaped ring at the depths of the lobes. The flowers are the deepest, richest royal purple.

    This is one of those plants whose flowers warrant the closest of inspection as they posses the sort of intricate beauty that can easily get overlooked amongst some of their more brash cousins but which nevertheless is as exquisite as they come. Each flower is a translucent lavender-white shaded to the edges and picked out lavender in the veins. Where the petals overlap the colour is stronger and from the white eye protrude a green style and pink anthers. Typical green G.phaeum foliage with small but distinct chocolate spots.

    Really vibrant 4cm wide flowers in a rich magenta pink with a deeper, almost purple venation and a gorgeous boss of blue-black stamens. The flowers are carried over really long season and look lovely with the black foliage of Ophiopogon which picks up the blackness of the eyes. The foliage in Spring is startlingly pale lemon with whiter edges and ages to a matt green with a hint of the darker spots typical of Geranium x oxonianum.

Place in a prominent position where the unusual many fingered leaves will always provoke comment. Not as high as some of the meadow cranesbills. Leaves become greener as the year progresses or if they are in too much shade. Best in sun. to 60cm. There was a profusion of cultivars produced following the original Californian introduction of G.'Vicor Reiter' which has led to some muddling and confusion in the names of the purple leaved strains, some of which are seed raised, and some micropropagated.
