This is an incredibly vigorous and tough geranium. It produces masses of flowers on shapely domes of almost shiny green foliage. Every cottage garden should have a swathe of this. If you cut this back to the ground after the first flush of flowers, it will usually flower again before the summer's out. It looks great with pink and white foxgloves.
It will thrive almost anywhere, even in dark dry spots and in almost any well drained soil. I would not put this in too fertile soil as it tends to get too leggy.
This plant can be divided in spring and will self seed.
