    :scratch: Well this is a guess @wiseowl but do you think it could be Geranium Johnson’s blue.? It’s the leaves I am not sure about... :scratch:

        It could be Rozanne Something Something, the flowers don't have different colour throats nor veining but are quite smoothly coloured like Rozannes. But the leaves are very narrow, like in wilder forms such as (the Teenager's favourite) Bloody Cranesbill.

        Hardy Geraniums look very different depending on the growing conditions so it's hard to guess. Perhaps it's a spontaneous hybrid? Geranium Wiseowlii :)

        Lovely colour :)

            Hmm :scratch: Well with the close up I think I still plump for Geranium × johnsonii Johnson's Blue.. Rozanne has purple veins on the petals and Johnsons doesn’t. ;) Mind you I love Wiseowlii :SUNsmile:
