You don't get many platypetalums and Turco is the only variety of that species which we stock. If you know what Philippe Vapelle and Terre Franche are like though, the foliage on this plant is very similar. Grey-green and slightly fuzzy. The flowers are a similar colour too but are far more circular.

Hardy Geraniums are one of the most diverse genera of herbaceous perennials. It is possible to find a Geranium to suit most parts of your garden, from the vast range of species and varieties available. They complement most other plants beautifully and, chosen wisely, can provide a continuation of colour in the garden from spring through to early winter.

Please note that the heights, spreads and flowering periods mentioned are approximate, as they can be affected by your soil type, light levels and other various conditions that may surround the plant.
