Description
Geranium Rozanne ('Gerwat'PBR)
Height x Spread: 60cm x 100cm
'Rozanne' carries masses of large, vivid violet-blue saucer-like flowers with distinct white centres and star-like reddish-purple veins over spreading mounds of dark green foliage. This is the longest flowering Geranium we know, lasting all summer into the autumn.
Excellent ground cover, it also looks fabulous planted under old-fashioned roses and other shrubs. Remove spent flower stems and foliage in midsummer to encourage further flowering. An undemanding plant, 'Rozanne' performs well in any relatively fertile soil that has some drainage in sun or partial shade. 'Rozanne' is RHS plant of the centenary.
