Geranium ‘Rozanne’ – Award-Winning Perennial with Nonstop Violet-Blue Blooms
Geranium ‘Rozanne’ is one of the most celebrated hardy geraniums, admired for its exceptionally long flowering period and striking violet-blue flowers with a white centre. Blooming profusely from early summer to the first frosts, this vigorous, spreading perennial provides months of colour and interest with very little maintenance required. Its deeply divided, mid-green foliage forms a soft, mounding ground cover that turns red in autumn, adding further seasonal value.
Ideal for borders, underplanting roses or shrubs, and softening edges in both traditional and modern garden styles, ‘Rozanne’ is a reliable, pollinator-friendly plant that weaves easily among companions. It thrives in sun or partial shade and is tolerant of most soils, making it a favourite for gardeners of all experience levels.
