It’s Time to Step Up to True Geranium Pleasure
When you hear the word “geranium” you may imagine annual flowers sold in flats at your local garden centre. However, those roundleaved, large-flowered annuals (pelargoniums) are not true geraniums at all.

Beloved by discerning gardeners, true geraniums are highly versatile hardy perennials. Their name originates from geranos, the Greek word for crane and refers to the plant’s beak-shaped seed capsules. This is why the hardy geranium is also known as Cranesbill.

Everbloooming Hardy Geraniums are tough and durable, performing well in a wide variety of soils and settings–from full sun to partial shade. Easy to maintain once established, they are disease free and unloved by snails, slugs and deer. They will also tolerate very low temperatures.

Best of all, Everblooming Hardy Geraniums spread quickly into thick carpets of foliage and multiply vigourously year after year. Packaged with care for shipment directly to you at the proper spring planting time. Each top-quality geranium is a large, healthy #1 plant guaranteed to grow and bloom in zones 3-8.

Each collection includes 2 each of these Everblooming Hardy Geraniums:

Album... Produces elegant, 1/2" cup-shaped flowers of pure white. For a second act, the delicate, smooth-edged foliage turns crimson-red in the autumn. Height: 6-10". Geranium sanguineum

Patricia... Magenta-pink petals darken to maroon, star-shaped centres. 3/4" blooms. Offers powerful visual impact against the handsome dark green foliage. Height: 12-18" Geranium endressi x psilostemo

Splish Splash... Exceptionally beautiful and rare bicolours. The delicate, 1/4" white cups are heavily splashed and banded with rich mauve-blue. Strong growing with a tidy form. Height: 18-24" Geranium pratense striatum

Ballerina... Award-winning Ballerina bears icy pink, 1 1/2" flowers highlighted by dark maroon veining and centres. Small, deeply divided, slightly tufted, grey-green foliage. Height: 5-7" Geranium cinereum

Johnson's Blue... Large, 1 1/2" to 2" saucer-shaped flowers of deep lavender-blue are tinged pink at the centre. Handsome, finely cut foliage turns orange and red in fall. Height: 12-18" Geranium himalayense x pratense
