Charming pink blooms arrive in late spring and don't stop until fall, when the plant's green leaves turn red and yellow. Elke withstands the worst summer heat, and is more tolerant of cold and drought than typical hardy geraniums. This is a versatile, low-maintenance perennial ideal for borders, rock gardens or as a colourful ground cover. Also great in patio pots, hanging baskets or window boxes. Easy to maintain once established, they are disease resistant, unloved by garden pests and magnets for pollinators. Geranium sanguineum
