This Geranium is a tough, low-maintenance perennial that thrives in well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade. It is ideal for borders, rock gardens, and wildlife-friendly planting schemes, where its deeply lobed foliage and vibrant magenta-pink flowers create long-lasting interest.

Once established, it becomes more drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering, though occasional deep watering in dry periods can boost flowering.

Deadheading spent blooms encourages further flushes of flowers, and in midsummer, rejuvenate plants that are beginning to look jaded by removing old flowered stems and leaves.

In autumn, lightly trim back to maintain a tidy shape, but leave some foliage for winter interest and shelter for wildlife.
