Geranium wlassovianum 'Lakwijk Star'
A selection of exceptional sprawling species with healthy fuzzy foliage flushed with burgundy in spring along trailing stems that pleasantly explore the immediate neighbourhood. Blooms continuously with deep-purple upfacing flowers. Good fall colour completes the résumé.
Great Plant Pick for the species. The trailing stems weave through neighbours without being invasive. The burgundy spring flush adds early interest. The continuous flowering without deadheading makes it low-maintenance. The fall colour provides extended seasonal value.
