Geranium sanquineum v. striatum is a tough, hardy Geranium that's native to Europe but quite popular in North American landscaping. It is often sold as 'Lancastriense.' It grows in regular mounds of fragrant, dissected leaves, with large, soft pink flowers that open wide (1.5"); the blooms only appear for 2-2.5 weeks in midsummer. Reddish fall color.
This ground-covering plant is great for full sun to half shade and thrives in virtually any soil that is not waterlogged (tolerates clay, dry soils, sandy or rocky). It grows fairly well in dry shade too. Deer and rabbit resistant.
It's a very dependable perennial for edges, the front of perennial beds, edges of woodland gardens, rock gardens, big containers, roof gardens, etc. Functions as an excellent filler; it can be used as a single plant in a small flower bed, or in groups as a groundcover.
This very adaptable plant can be combined with many perennials. It's an excellent companion of the popular daylilies (Hemerocallis) and bearded Iris (iris x barbata, Iris x germanica). It meets in bloom with late-flowering Paeonias, late-blooming bearded Irises or Salvia nemorosa (Salvia x sylvestris hybrids).

Sweet Geranium!
I am redesigning my gardens the spring using Roy Dilbik's Know Maintenance Approach, and was excited to find this geranium, one of Roy's favorites, at US Perennials. For its size and shape, I believe it will bloom this season. I highly recommend this grower and will continue to purchase plants here!
