There is a variety of perennial geranium that is
*noted* for its quilted leaves. Sorry I can't
remember the name. Very pretty foliage, fairly
insignificant flowers. Oh. Geranium renardii.

Jeanne,
Just a note about your perennial geraniums:
I'm in zone 6a and my
geraniums only bloom once a year in late
spring/early summer. I've cut
them back per the "Well Tended..." book and
now have nice foliage, but no
new blooms (I suspect that it is just too hot
here). Therefore, I'm not
surprised that your plants haven't bloomed this
year. Just wait until next
season.
I am not too sure, however, that the foliage you
are describing is that of
a geranium. I share your doubt. My varieties
all have leaves about the
size of a quarter or half-dollar and are dissected
with conspicuous
veining. Some have a scalloped edge. None is
what I would describe as
"crinkled."
Anyone else?
