"Be happy grow geraniums"

Hardy geraniums (aka the cranes bill, not to be mixed up with Pelargoniums that are not winter hardy), are wonderful plants for the garden.

Coming in so many different shapes and sizes Geraniums range from tall growing varieties for the backs of borders to beautifully compact varieties to edge paths and take prime positions in pots and borders. They are slug resistant and rabbit resistant (hurray!) and they just simply flower and flower.

After their first flush of flowers if you give them a good cut back most will flower again before the end of the summer for you.

They could not be easier!
All our Geraniums are grown in 2 litre pots and can only be purchased by visiting the nursery.
