A trio of weed-supressing, semi-evergreens which bring verdant carpets to your planting from March to November. From June through to August and September jazzy and joyful five-petalled flowers with pronounced stamen appear, accompanied by pretty spherical buds waiting to burst into bloom.Hardy Geranium Fragrant Stars Collection comprises fragrant foliaged varities – ‘Biokovo’ with its pastel pink flowers and a height and spread of 30-45cm; perfumed ‘Karmina’ in a deep, magenta pink with a height of 30cm and a spread of 60cm; and ‘Intense’ with its hot pink flowers and red-pink buds with a height of 25cm and a spread of 50cm. Plants in the Hardy Geranium Fragrant Stars Collection are happy in any moist, well-drained soil which benefits from full sun or partial shade. These are resilient perennials, with all except the fully hardy ‘Intense’ being hardy enough to withstand -15 to -20°C without any additional protection.
