Geranium sanguineum var. striatum

 

Blush pink flowers with purple veining on the petals. Very pretty if the same purple is picked up in a neighbour. Plants form a vigorous, long-blooming, spreading mound. Useful at the front of the border where this geranium will weave nicely into its neighbours or as a groundcover.
