True geraniums - not the big showy annuals (actually called Pelargoniums) - are fantastic plants that provide near-year-round interest in the garden. The foliage of the geraniums in our gardens remain green through November before turning the most beautiful shade of crimson in December. They are extremely easy to grow in average garden soil in full sun to part shade.
Endre's cranesbill, sometimes known as French geranium, is an excellent evergreen ground cover that is consistently smothered in rosy-pink blooms from June through September. Spreads quickly, but never becomes invasive.
