Notes
'Tanya Rendall' crane's-bill (Geranium 'Tanya Rendall') is a perennial for borders, rock gardens, containers, and ground cover. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It sits low on the menu for deer and rabbits. Red flowers open in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. Butterflies visit the blooms, and the plant tolerates drought.
Pairs well with Balloon flower, Japanese forest grass, and Irish moss.
