Wild Geranium ( Geranium canadense) | Bulbs
A common woodland native, found throughout the eastern half of the U.S, Wild Geranium delivers an abundance of bright lavender flowers that are super-attractive to pollinators. Solitary bees, bumble bees and several species of butterflies are drawn to its nectar and pollen. This is a great plant for offering pollinator support in the spring. The long-lived plants expand to form a nice mounded mass, covered with flowers. Deeply lobed palmate leaves stay attractive all season-long in the shade, where it can eventually form a very nice ground cover. Geranium maculatum does prefer shade or partial shade, but it will grow in full sun if the soil is rich and consistently damp. Also called Cranesbill, a common name which refers to the pointy structure on the seed pod that serves to jetison the mature seed pods away from the parent plant. Wild geranium is a larval host plant for the White-Marked Tussock moth Orgyia leucostigma.
