Wild Cranesbill

Our native woodland geranium has pinkish lavender flowers that fade to nearly white with yellow centers. They bloom for weeks in mid-spring to early summer. Its leaves are deeply with multiple lobes and are very attractive. During extreme heat and dry conditions, the foliage may yellow and cutting them back will rejuvenate them. Geraniums are host to 23 species of butterflies and moths. It grows well in just about any soil except wet. It gently colonizes an area through its rhizomes. Its ability to tolerates deer, rabbits, drought, and dry soil make it a lovely addition to any garden edge. Medicinal uses.

Plant Care & Installation Quick-Guide

Proper acclimation and installation are key to your plant's success. Please cross-reference these tips with your plant's specific ID tags:

·
Pre-Planting: Store plants in a light-appropriate area on soil or grass (avoid hot concrete or asphalt) and water daily until the soil is saturated and the pot feels heavy. If temperatures drop below 30°F, move pots to a garage or cover them to prevent root freeze.

·
Installation: Dig a hole matching the depth of the pot, remove the fabric container, and ensure the plant’s crown or root flare is level with the ground. Fill gaps with soil, water heavily, and apply 2 inches of mulch—keeping it clear of the stem.

·
Ongoing Care: Check moisture daily by feeling 1–2 inches into the soil; water deeply at the base if the soil feels dry or warm. Newly installed plants require frequent watering (up to 3–4 times weekly in heat) until fully established, which can take a few months for perennials and up to two years for trees.
