Description:
Geranium ‘Orkney Cherry’ has many things going for it: it has attractive bronzy-green foliage with a silver sheen, it has masses of vivid pink flowers, it blooms for a long period from early May until the end of the summer, and it’s Scottish having been bred off the rugged coast of Scotland! (I can almost hear the bag pipes playing ‘Danny Boy’.) Plant in sun to part shade in well-drained soils. Makes a good groundcover.
