Description
If there was ever a way to add a lightning bolt to your border it must be with the electrifying blue flowers of Geranium 'Rozanne'. This award-winning hardy geranium was crowned RHS Plant of the Centenary 2013, which is quite the achievement! So, we’re sure you'll enjoy reliable results for years to come from this champion. Forming a lush cushion of fresh green soft-to-touch foliage in the border, when it bursts into flower action in late spring the bright blooms of Rozanne will sparkle and dazzle for attention like little stars of pure blue joy!
Geranium Rozanne ('Gerwat'ᴾᴮᴿ) syn. Geranium wallichianum 'Jolly Bee' is a clump-forming perennial which will gradually spread into a ground-covering mass. It's hardy, easy to grow and thrives in most places, be it sun or shade and most soil types. After the first flush of flowers have faded, cut it right back in mid summer and, if the weather is good, you can expect a repeat show later in the season which lasts into autumn. Rozanne cranesbill is a timeless and reliable classic in the English border, with the added bonus of benefitting bees and pollinators.

Useful information
-
Soak your Geranium 'Rozanne' roots in water for 3-6 hours prior to planting.
Plant your "Rozanne cranesbill" bare roots into temporary pots with a multipurpose compost in spring and grow-on in a sheltered spot outdoors.
Choose a pot which comfortably fits the bare roots. Some have a noticeable crown which should be just below the soil surface with any top growth exposed.
Plant out into borders or permanent containers in late spring or early summer once in full growth. Choose a position in sun or shade depending on the variety.
