More Information

Description In need of a low-maintenance ground cover without sacrificing good looks? Try giving 'Max Frei' bloody cranesbill (Geranium sanguineum) a try in your garden! This herbaceous perennial is loved for its vibrant magenta blooms in late spring. It grows to form a lush mat of green foliage topped with saucer-shaped flowers that butterflies love. Its green foliage is known to transition to a stunning red color in autumn and tends to be avoided by both deer and rabbits. Have a raised flowerbed or retaining wall that needs something special? We love watching cranesbill drift and spillover walls. It also makes a great filler for rock gardens and looks stunning spread along pathways. Details How To Grow

Not doing too well. Half of plant is dead, I’ve fertilized and watered, but don’t think it’s going to last the summer nor be back next year.

Excellent plant quality excellent shipping!

First time ordering from you but not my last!! Each plant carefully packed, ready to plant and so much healthier than my own plants! I can clearly see how a regular fertilizing schedule can do for plants!! Thank you!!
