I just love these, they’ve never stop flowering! Small, nodding and dainty but more robust and scrambling when they have a taller neighbour to support them a little. Very useful and pretty plants. Last years survived and flowered on and off all winter so I sent for more this year to add to them.

Disappointed at these 9cm plants. Pots mat be 9cm but the plants are far from it and on delivery appear to have only just been potted on into loose and very dry compost. Not really any bigger than plugs so at the moment don't seem good value at all. Hopefully they will survive to next spring for planting

A little gem!

Bought this last year for an exposed shady border and it flowered till late into the Autumn, and after a very cold winter it is now back scrambling through shrubs to give me joy with it’s perfect small purple flowers. A brilliant plant.

Little gem!

Bought last Summer to trial in window boxes on a sunny terrace and it was love at first sight! This has to be the cutest plant I ever had. I am thinking of smothering every available surface in it this Summer. Goes well with everything, undemanding and hasn't stopped flowering.

A very pretty, dainty Geranium which gently weaves its way through other plants. Beautiful small bluey purple flowers and attractive leaves.

Reviewed 2nd February 2016 by Sophie Simpson

This little geranium, with its rounded leaves and bright violet flowers on sprawling stems is perfect for understory planting. It will scramble through shrubs and stiff perennials and the blue flowers really show up in the last rays of the evening sun. It is a prolific self-seeder. I was given one plant and had many by the end of the first year. They grow in bright sun and shady areas and flower for months on end with very little care.
