Features

notes
Geranium Jolly Jewel is a wonderfully compact and hardy plant that provides excellent ground cover in a herbaceous border, with its cushion of attractive foliage. From lovely mounds of deeply cut grey/green leaves, spring a mass of long-lasting purple flowers that are prettily veined, radiantly coloured and as the name suggests, jewel-like.
Insights

This Geranium is part of a series bred by the Netherlandish breeder Marco van Hoort who created it by crossbreeding the Ashy Geranium (Geranium cinereum), with its attractive grey/green leaves (hence ‘Ashy’). With such a pedigree, Geranium Jolly Jewel Purple has attractive foliage and in-bred robustness.
