One of the joys of this time of year is seeing the hardy geraniums at their best.
With such a wide range of colours, forms and flowering times, there's almost always something in bloom from late spring through to autumn.
Some varieties thrive in full sun, others are perfectly happy in shade, making them incredibly versatile garden plants. From pure white and soft pinks to rich purples and vibrant blues, there's a hardy geranium for almost every situation.
They're not just beautiful. Their open flowers provide an excellent source of nectar for bees and other pollinators throughout the season.
Reliable, long-flowering, wildlife-friendly and easy to grow π some of my favourite garden plants.
