I planted them in various places, only one survived despite my careful attention. I should mention that I have been successfully cultivating perennial geraniums for over 20 years.

Description

Collection of 6 perennial Geranium cinereum in 3 varieties: Geranium cinereum var. subcaulescens, 'Laurence Flatman', 'Carol', with violet, raspberry pink, and pale pink flowers..

Geranium cinereums are excellent perennials for dry soil, their small size allows them to be planted along a path, in a rockery, or on a slope.

With dense and compact wood, Geranium cinereums form small tillers with a width and diameter of 20cm (8in). They have evergreen leaves, green with a grey underside. They carpet dry and rocky soil and only thrive in the sun. Give them a very sunny exposure in a rockery or along a dry col.
