If you like Geranium 'Brookside', then you will love Geranium 'Orion'. This hybrid from Holland's Brian Kabbes is the result of a cross between G. himalayense 'Gravetye' and G. 'Brookside'. The result is a non-flopping, heat- and humidity-tolerant clump of deeply cut, green foliage that can reach 30" tall x 3' wide, topped in spring with large, 2.5" intensely blue flowers. This is one superb geranium...a hard claim to make in our climate!
