'Philippe Vapelle' is one of the hundreds of hardy geraniums that Orkney farmer, Alan Bremner has raised in his garden. It produces purple flowers with dark veins all summer long and makes a neat, mound-shaped plant. Hardy geraniums are ideal for adding an informal touch to cottage gardens and are great for adding colour to shady spots in the garden.
