GERANIUM ‘Brookside’

Geranium ‘Brookside’

Height x Spread: 60cm x 50cm

A modern cultivar that delivers intense mid-blue flowers with white centres and reddish veins, over deeply divided mid-green foliage. One of the longest flowering and brightest blue Geraniums we know. Bees absolutely love it.

Its upright and spreading habit is useful for underplanting roses and keeping the weeds down at the front of a border. Cutting back after flowers fade in mid-summer will encourage a second flush of blooms. A most useful plant that thrives in a sunny or part shade location if grown in fairly fertile well-drained soil.  It can tolerate full shade but its habit will be more lax.
