This species of perennial geranium is taller than the typical cranesbill, growing 24 to 30 inches in height, with an equal spread. It has a floppy habit, and so staking may be required if a more upright appearance is desired (or plant it next to taller, stiffer perennials like dwarf fescue or tall sedum). Leaves are green, large, and palmately lobed, with a lovely fall color. flowers occur late spring to early summer, and color depends on the cultivar.
Grow in loamy, well drained soil in full sun to light shade, though too much shade or water will cause it to be sort of floppy and scraggish. Adaptable to soil types and pH.
