Hi again Ingrid,
From my files:
G. cinereum "Apple Blossom" is a wrong name for G. x lindavicum "Apple
Blossom".
G. x lindavicum "Apple Blossom", white flower, faintly veined, grooping:
Erodioideae/Subacaulia/Cinereum, flowers in July, sunny spot.
Parents of all "x lindavicum" cvs are G. argenteum x G. cinereum. The
name was given in 1912 to this also naturally appearing hybrid by
Sunderman ex Knuth.
The grooping classification of course comes from Peter Yeo's book on
hardy Geraniums.
Hope this helps.
