Geranium hybrida Brookside is a graceful, long flowering perennial with clear violet blue blooms that appear from early summer and continue well into autumn. The flowers sit above finely cut green foliage that forms a soft, spreading mound, adding gentle movement and colour to borders. It works beautifully in cottage gardens, naturalistic planting and mixed borders, weaving between other plants without becoming invasive. Brookside is known for its reliability, strong flowering performance and ability to brighten sunny or lightly shaded areas.

This plant is supplied as a young perennial plug around 3 to 5 cm in size. These smaller plants grow on quickly once planted and usually take around eight to twelve weeks to reach the size of a typical 9 cm growers pot. When your young plant arrives, unpack it straight away, water gently, and place it in a bright, sheltered spot for a short time while it settles. Plant out or pot on as soon as possible, keeping the soil moist while the roots establish. Once settled, it will grow into a healthy, long lasting perennial for your garden.
