Geranium sanguineum 'New Hampshire Purple'

Plant Type: Perennial
Plant Family: Geraniaceae
Plant Description: Clump-forming, spreading perennial. Green leaves are deeply lobed turning red in autumn. Magenta 5-petaled flowers cover the plant in spring with sparse reblooms throughout the summer. Will tolerate some drought and poor soils but prefers moderate watering and fertile soils.
Maintenance:
Maintenance Type: Perennial - Herbaceous
Plant Care: Perennial - Herbaceous (soft-stemmed plants that die back in winter and regrow in spring): Remove spent blooms to promote rebloom later. Some plants tend to flop over after the first bloom and attempt to regrow from the base; in these cases, the old stems can be cut away in summer. As plants become dormant in the fall, remove dead leaves and stems.
