Notes
'Vision' bloody geranium (Geranium sanguineum 'Vision') is a perennial for borders, pollinator gardens, cottage gardens, 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, loamy or clay soil. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. Reddish-purple flowers appear in spring and again in summer, and they draw butterflies and bees.
Pairs well with Green Spice coral bells, Blue fescue, and Purple Coneflower coneflower.
