✂️ Care
Extremely hardy and low-maintenance, this perennial geranium thrives with minimal care once established. A light spring clean-up is sufficient to maintain its vigor and encourage abundant flowering.
Its aromatic, finely cut, evergreen foliage releases a pleasant fragrance when brushed against. In autumn and winter, the foliage takes on bronze and reddish hues, extending its visual interest in the garden.
