description for "Geraniums: Geranium x lindavicum 'Apple Blossom'"
'Apple Blossom' is a beautiful small plant forming a compact mound with soft pale pink flowers accented with prominent dark silver pink veins. Deeply cut gray-green foliage. Sun to partial shade, moist but well-drained soil. Plant in front of the border, rock garden or along wood's edge. Completely hardy, these are not the annual greenhouse geraniums (actually Pelargonium) found in many gardens. In general, they are free from insects and disease and don't require frequent division. Well drained soil is beneficial to all varieties. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
