Thanks so much Mia. I was concerned if it would be hardy enough for my
location. If it is G. pratense then it is hardy.

Splish Splash is not an accepted name. The real name of this Geranium is G
pratense "Striatum". Earlier publisht as G pratense var. bicolor or G p var.
striatum.
It is a seedling of G pratense which will mostly come true from seed.

Yesterday I found and purchased a charming little hybrid Geranium called
Splish Splash. The leaves look just like Johnson's Blue except slightly
lighter green and the flowers are white splashed with lavender-purple. Does
anyone know what the parentage might be?
