Geranium pratense
DARK REITER
SKU: 1332-005
These hardy perennial geraniums have gorgeous very-dark reddish/plum foliage, forming clumps of lacy foliage that is a nice complimentary contrast to surrounding plants. Blue and purple flowers are held on tall stems above the foliage.
Type: Hardy perennial
Height: 25 cm or 10"
Location: Full sun or part shade
Hardiness zones: 4-8
Seeds per packet: 5
Germination: These seeds require light to germinate. Sow the seeds on surface and water in. Do not bury the seeds. Leave them at room temperature (20-22 C, 68-72 F) for 4 weeks. If they have not germinated after 4 weeks then a cooling period is required. Cover them with plastic and place in a fridge for 4 weeks. Be sure they stay moist. After the cold-moist stratification period they are then brought back to a cool room (15C, 59F) for them to germinate. Germination can be 30-60 days after the warming period, though some will take longer.
