Geranium 'Ann Folkard'

Ann Folkard Hardy Geranium

Herbaceous Perennial

Leaves emerge brilliant gold in spring, fading to chartreuse. Vivid, dark-eyed magenta flowers from late spring through fall add a long lasting stunning contrast to the foliage. A "weaver" with sprawling tendencies; she'll grow over, around, and through her neighbors so pair with plants of equally hardy constitution. If she begins to look unkempt, cut back as needed.
