One of Alan Bremner's most attractive hybrids (G. pratense x G. collinum) with clouds of pale blue flowers with violet veins from May to November. Upright habit to 80cm, good soil in sun.

Geranium 'Distant Hills' has much of the habit of Geranium pratense, clump forming and upright growth, with the bonus of the long flowering season of Geranium collinum - an excellent combination.

Ideal for typical herbaceous border situations and probably has the ability to compete well in a meadow type planting too.

Named and introduced in 1994.
