The Gardener's Notepad
One of several extra dark Geranium cultivars, and positively lovely! Deep purple leaves with dark lavender flowers. Likes some sun, but should be kept slightly cool. Think morning sun or mid-day sun only, and it should perform well. Not a high water use plant, but dislikes extreme drought.
