    Just bought this but I think I've planted it in the wrong place as it says on the label part or full shade and I have stupidly planted it in more or less full sun!!

    Think I may leave it there and see how it does as I want it to be ground cover and bare stem cover for my new dark red climbing rose.

    It should produce near black flowers.

    I have posted some more pics on the "Hardy Geranium" post, in case anyone is interested ;)

    [​IMG] No pic here Stingo :rolleyes:

    but sounds as if I have done the same thing with my Johnson Blue geranium - planted it in full sun and every time the sun shines on it the whole plant really wilts. As the day goes on and it's in the shade again it springs back to life!
    Black flowers - sounds unusual - do you mean the rose or the geranium?

    Hi jjordie

    I meant I've posted pics in the other hardy geranium site of my other geraniums. This new one isn't in flower yet.

    Yes it's meant to have near black flowers on the new geranium and my rose should be a deep red.

    Neither are in flower yet though as they are both new.
