  • Description

  • Notes

This geranium species, native to Utah, is a lovely geranium with showy pink flowers from May to August. Soft green leaves are deeply segmented and turn an attractive red in the fall. Sticky geranium grows best at our elevation with dappled light, so it is ideal as an understory plant with taller shrubs or woody perennials. Grows about 15 to 20 inches tall and wide.
