Cranesbill

Beautiful, long-blooming flowers attract butterflies. Aromatic foliage makes an excellent weed-free ground cover. Also attractive in rock gardens, along paths or at garden's edge, planted with garden phlox, bellflower and ornamental grasses. Prune old leaves and flowers to encourage new growth.
