Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

'Rozanne' is a patented hybrid clump-forming geranium that typically grows in a mound to 20 inches tall by 24 inches wide. Large, 5-petaled, violet-blue flowers with purple-violet veins and small white centers bloom profusely from late spring to early summer, Deeply cut, slightly marbled, deep green foliage turns red in the fall. Synonymous with Geranium 'Jolly Bee'.
Grow in full sun to part shade in well drained soils. Tolerant of sandy or clay soils. If the flowers seem to wane with the summer heat, cut the plant back hard and it may bloom again when the temperatures begin to drop in late summer.
