Description
Erodium chrysanthum
Height x Spread: 20cm x 30cm
On this form of Erodium soft lemon flowers are produced in summer over soft grey green finely divided foliage.
A sunny border in free draining soil is where these little clump forming plants enjoy to grow. An alkaline to neutral soil is best as they originate from mediterranean regions. If the clumps become a little untidy they can be given a prune back - this is best done in the spring.
