  Dark lilac, saucer-shaped flowers appear from May to September among deeply divided, deep purple leaves. A brand new introduction from North America, this geranium is very compact and the unusual foliage turns lovely autumnal colours. Like all hardy geraniums, it is ideal for the front of a sunny border though it can cope with a fairly shady spot and looks at home growing in a deciduous woodland garden.
