White Cranesbill Geranium, scientifically known as Geranium sanguineum 'Album', is a carefree flowering performer that will thrive in your garden with little to no fuss! Deeply lobed, lush green foliage creates a mounding, billowy mat that stays tidy. In May, 1-inch pure white flowers appear for a late spring show. The fine, delicate foliage transforms to a brilliant red in cooler autumn weather.
White Cranesbill Geranium stays compact, reaching only 8 inches in height but can spread up to 24 inches wide. Plant this geranium along walkways or in the front of a border, as it makes an elegant groundcover.
White Cranesbill Geranium Care
Plant White Cranesbill Geranium in a partial shade location, in humus-rich, well-draining soil. Suitable for growing in containers, white cranesbill requires excellent drainage, so be sure there are ample drainage holes in the container. White Cranesbill Geranium is not particular about soil pH and soil type, and it’s very adaptable to various growing conditions.
This herbaceous perennial will die back to the crown each winter in colder climates and will re-emerge from the base each spring. In milder climates, this geranium is considered semi-evergreen, so you can wait until early spring to cut the foliage back and enjoy the winter greenery. If grown in containers, be sure to check the soil because more frequent watering may be required.
White Cranesbill Geranium Spacing
When planted in multiples as a bedding plant or groundcover, individual plants should be spaced roughly 20 inches apart. If using White Cranesbill Geranium in a container, it is often used as a filler in the traditional spiller, thriller, and filler combinations.
