Hello Lil

I, too, would be interested in answers to your questions about hardy geraniums. I am looking for a couple/three to add to my gardens and inventory for the nursery. Has to be a shade-lover for sure, something perhaps in species line, out of the usual. Samobar is a favorite... likes to seed about in my garden. Have Biokovo.

Kitty, I saw your recommendations. Will do a search for photos.

Had a really interesting speaker at our local Hort. Society meeting this week.  Topic was using Geraniums as a secondary plant, filler, or for foliage colour. Her slides were absolutely great and make me want to add at least one to my new tiny garden. I've had several in the past - Jesters Jacket, Katherine Adele, Biokovo, Samobar, etc.  I would like a sterile one so I don't have to contend with seedling, but really just want great foliage. If I get seedlings, they're easy to pull out.
 
So which are your favourites? What has been most successful for you?  Can do either sun or shade.
