Latin Name: Geranium maculatum Height: 18 - 24 inches Spread: 12 - 18 inches Sunlight: Full Sun; Part Sun; Part Shade Bloom Time: April to June Hardiness Zone: 3-8 Description:Wild Cranesbill has masses of pink to lavender colored flowers from late spring to mid summer, which are most effective when planted in groupings. Its deeply cut lobed palmate leaves are dark green in color. Foliage will decline if the soil dries out in summer droughts. Cutting back midseason as new growth emerges from the base of the plant will help it seem like a new plant! Also, deadheading will encourage it to continue blooming longer into the season. Birds love to eat the seed capsules. Wild Cranesbill is a native plant commonly found in a woodland setting.
