Geranium 'Philippe Vapelle'
£4.95
Common Name: Cranesbill
Flowering Period: May-July
UK Native? Garden origin
Pot Size: 1.5 litre

(5-7 sun)   40x40cm

A hybrid of G. renardii x G. platypetalum, this is another of Alan Bremner's crosses, with the sage-like foliage of G. renardii and large bluish-purple flowers which are strongly and darkly veined. Does best with us in a slightly moist soil. It appears to be similar, if not identical, to G. renardii 'Tcschelda'. Evergreen foliage is valuable in winter making a mound of sage-like leaves and the flowers are held clear of this in early summer. Repeat flowers in September.  

This plant was added to our catalogue on Tuesday 24 February, 2004.
