Geranium 'Ann Folkard'
Perennial Geranium are always a favorite for its late spring to summer bloom time. Lovely foliage complements the flowers well. Many of the flowers exhibit interesting veining. Cranesbill Geranium are ideal for slopes and rock gardens. Long-lived and drought tolerant once established. Little or no maintenance.
A hybrid of G. procurrens x G. psilostemon, this vigorous variety can be cut back hard if needed. Snip off spent flowering stems at the base. Should flowering stop in the heat of the summer, shear tops back to new growth to stimulate rebloom and freshen foliage. Generally does not need division but can be divided in spring or fall if desired.
Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!
