Geranium 'Samobor'

Could Geranium 'Samobor' be any more easy going and easy to love? We don't think so! Not only is it a tough perennial that grows happily in various conditions—shade, sun, dry, damp, clay, sandy soil—but it flowers its socks off through late spring and early summer, attracting pollinators with its dusky display of dark purple, nectar-rich flowers. With minimal effort, you'll be treated to an elegant show of blooms on upright stems which wave in the breeze every year. The reflexed petals of Geranium 'Samobor' give the flowers that relaxed, windswept appearance, plus allow easy-access for bees.    

The soft green, deeply lobed leaves of Geranium phaeum 'Samobor' burst out in early spring with their distinctive dark blotches around their centre for added interest. This attractive, soft greenery sets the stage for spring flowers like tulips and narcissus. In bloom, you can expect this hardy geranium to become a firm companion to other late spring/early summer perennials in your border, such as Geum and Polemonium.
