Heronsbill 'Bishop's Form'
Erodium x variabile 'Bishop's Form'
4-inch pot
 
Also known as an Alpine Geranium, this charming, low-growing perennial forms a neat mat of small, deeply lobed green leaves topped with cheerful rosy-pink flowers. Each five-petaled bloom is delicately marked with darker pink veining, giving the flowers surprising detail for such a diminutive plant. Its exceptionally long flowering season provides color from spring well into fall.
 
‘Bishop’s Form’ is especially well suited to rock gardens, crevices, troughs, pathway edges, and other small-scale plantings. It thrives in sun with sharp drainage and tolerates dry conditions once established. Its compact, slowly spreading habit makes it an excellent choice for filling small spaces without overwhelming neighboring plants.
