Erodium Species, Alpine Geranium, Cranesbill, Storksbill

This plant has been quite an experience to grow!
I first bought a white erodium, which happened to do really well indoors in my ca...Read Morere and i decided to buy a pink one since i thought it would be fun to have two different flowering ones next to eachother. However, when it arrived, the plant was unrecognizably terrible looking; leggy, tattered, yellowed, you name it! i decided to plant it in the same sort of terracotta pot as my other one, though this one had no drainage hole though i planted it in more well draining soil. Anyways, i went on vacation for three weeks or so with all my plants left to the care of my grandmother and when i returned i saw it in absolutely beautiful condition! It had become a bushy, beautiful plant in that time and filled the small terracotta pot much faster than my white-flowered erodium, and it has even larger flowers than its adoptive sibling! I've found it much more relaxed to grow this variety, since it doesn't yellow when underwatered, it just wilts and immediately bounces back when watered similar to a spathiphyllum.

Stump your friends with your mini geranium. Grows well in most exposed conditions, but does appreciated afternoon shade during the hotte...Read Morest parts of the year.

Good for that special part of the rock garden where the tiny pink blooms will float for months.
