Geranium wallichianum 'Buxton's Form' is a selection that originated in Wales in 1900. This long lived perennial will flower for a good three to four months, starting in late July. The foliage of this geranium emerges relatively late in the season, so it is good to mark where a young plant has been sited. Since this plant is often raised from seed, the flower color can range from a true blue into a mauve/magenta. Low growing but relatively wide spreading, these plants can be found in the hawthorn tree bed next to the Great Lawn.
