Geranium 'Silver Cloak'

This invaluable, evergreen, mounding groundcover provides long lasting, easy care, eye popping colour through spring and summer (for us around October to April).

The decorative, deeply divided, silver foliage rambles gracefully along garden edging, the front of beds, rock gardens or in pots (where it will spill and thrill from the sides). A cross of two South African species, (G. robustum x G. incanum) it is impressively dry and frost hardy. A good choice to combine with spring bulbs as it will come into its own just as they are fading.

Plant Geranium ‘Silver Cloak’ in full sun to light shade and fertilise at the beginning of spring, and again in summer with a mid season prune to keep them blooming into autumn. Plant into a well drained soil in a sunny position and water well to establish. Once it has settled in it will become dry tolerant. Give them a quick trim if they become leggy.
