Erodium variabile 'William Bishop' – Alpine Geranium
A charming and compact perennial, Erodium variabile 'William Bishop' forms a low, spreading mat of finely divided foliage, perfect for rockeries, containers, or the front of borders. Throughout summer, it produces a profusion of small, magenta-pink flowers with delicate dark veining, creating a vibrant contrast against the lush green leaves.
This long-flowering alpine geranium is ideal for sunny, well-drained spots and will gently trail over the edge of pots or stones. Easy to grow and low-maintenance, it adds continuous colour and interest from late spring into autumn.
