Notes

'Mrs Kendall Clark' hardy geranium (Geranium pratense 'Mrs Kendall Clark') is a perennial for borders, low maintenance beds, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 4, or down to -30°F (-34°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average to moist soil of most types. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. It blooms in spring and again in summer, and butterflies visit the flowers. It also tolerates drought.
