 An eruption of flowers is on the way in the garden. Geranium x oxonianum is a prolific spreader and self-seeder which clumps up with semi-evergreen foliage and masses of pink flowers (delicately veined in darker pink).
 I've let it spread where I want it and pulled it up where I don't. The first blooms are appearing now and soon they'll be smothered in them. June is their peak but they continue flowering well into September. Bees abound all day long.
