A solid performer with a quickly spreading habit and foliage that remains attractive throughout the entire season. 'Tiny Monster' is a reliable groundcover for landscapers and gardeners who appreciate low-maintenance perennials.

G. ' Tiny Monster ' is a wonderful new sterile cultivar from Germany. It is a cross between G. sanguineum and G. psilostemon. Purple-violet flowers appear 4"-6" above the mounded foliage from late spring through late summer. In the fall, the leaves become imbued with rich scarlet tones.

Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips:
Cranesbill is generally quite adapatable to a variety of growing conditions. Though it prefers moist, well-drained soil, it will also tolerate periods of drought once established. For this reason, it is a good choice for southern gardens. Cranesbill will grow in full sun or part shade. In too much shade, however, its habit will be less compact and fewer flowers will be produced. Geraniums are generally considered pest free. They require little care once established, but may be divided every 3-4 years. If the foliage begins to look raggedy by late summer, simply trim it back. A new flush of foliage will quickly take its place.
