Its deeply cut lobed palmate leaves are grayish green in colour. As an added bonus, the foliage turns a gorgeous dark red in the fall.Landscape AttributesPink Summer Cranesbill is a dense herbaceous perennial with a mounded form. It brings an extremely fine and delicate texture to the garden composition and should be used to full effect.This is a relatively low maintenance plant, and should only be pruned after flowering to avoid removing any of the current season’s flowers. Deer don’t particularly care for this plant and will usually leave it alone in favor of tastier treats. It has no significant negative characteristics.Pink Summer Cranesbill is recommended for the following landscape applications;Mass PlantingGeneral Garden UseGroundcoverContainer PlantingPlanting & GrowingPink Summer Cranesbill will grow to be about 10 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 18 inches. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 14 inches apart. Its foliage tends to remain low and dense right to the ground. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years. As an herbaceous perennial, this plant will usually die back to the crown each winter, and will regrow from the base each spring. Be careful not to disturb the crown in late winter when it may not be readily seen!This plant does best in full sun to partial shade. It is very adaptable to both dry and moist locations, and should do just fine under typical garden conditions. It is not particular as to soil type or pH. It is somewhat tolerant of urban pollution. This is a selected variety of a species not originally from North America. It can be propagated by division; however, as a cultivated variety, be aware that it may be subject to certain restrictions or prohibitions on propagation.Pink Summer Cranesbill is a fine choice for the garden, but it is also a good selection for planting in outdoor pots and containers. It is often used as a ‘filler’ in the ‘spiller-thriller-filler’ container combination, providing a mass of flowers against which the thriller plants stand out. Note that when growing plants in outdoor containers and baskets, they may require more frequent waterings than they would in the yard or garden.Plant DetailsBotanical NameGeranium sanguineum ‘Pink Summer’Plant TypeperennialBotanical ClassificationperennialHeight12 inchesSpread18 inchesGrowth RatemediumHardiness Zone3bSunlightfull sun to partial shadeMoisturedry to moistFlower Colorshell pinkBloom Timefrom early to mid summerFoliage Colorgray greenFall Colordark redSpecial FeaturesDeer Resistant
