Geranium phaeum ‘Joseph Green’ is a double-flowered form with an unusual twist. Held in sprays on slender stems, its flowers have layers of deep purplish-blue petals surrounding a prominent centre of modified stamens, each tipped rich lime-green.
Found by Lynne Edwards as a seedling in her garden in 2013, it was named after her father, a keen horticulturist. It has been in propagation since 2017.
It thrives in dappled shade in well-drained, humus-rich soil and also tolerates deeper shade. For a partially shaded border with contrasting textures and a long season of interest, try combining it with Veronica, Amsonia, Lamprocapnos and Tiarella.
