Ah I am not the only one who could not resist Geranium Sherwood.  I had it in a bit early as it wasn't properly hardened off. Turns out it is a tough cooky. Magnificum, though a lovely purply blue is somewhat of a floppy one. It benefits from staking with twiggy sticks. Good amount of flowering shrubs too Paul. I hope they get to see some real Spring soon. |
