Saint Day garden. Something tells me this door isn't much used!

My Mum's garden again! For Pam and for Rashid who seems to really appreciate my mum's garden!

A cranesbill species, Geranium Robertianum, a. k. a. Stinking Robert or storksbill. I moved into a new flat a few years ago and this was in the window-box. It had to go, pretty as it was, as I needed the window-box for tomatoes! This was its valedictory photo!

Geranium (and I don't mean pelargonium), my Mum's garden, Saint Day, Cornwall

My Mum's garden. HFF everyone! These came from my great-aunt's garden at her farm in Zennor, Cornwall. I hadn't seen them before (yes similar ones but not this vibrant). She couldn't remember where she got them from (cuttings from cuttings going back to the 1930s apparently). I took cuttings (this was in the early 80s), planted some myself in my London garden and gave some to my mum for her garden, also in London at that time. Then my parents retired to Cornwall 20 years ago and this nice geranium followed. I feel a strong attachment to it! It has faithfully followed the family around for the best part of a century! I want to take cuttings to Madrid and establish a Spanish branch. It deserves its place in the sun!
