Oops - sorry about that. Thanks for pointing it out Janey, I've corrected it now

Do you know its name, Andrew? I've got this one, too. My RHS Geranium book is not specific enough about the macrorrhizums.

This should be the straight macrorrhizum, not a named variety

Thanks - I can rename mine now!

Looks very similar to one I have called Spessart. Or perhaps you know Spessart and this one is different again.

According to my RHS book, 'Spessart' has brown calyces, otherwise they're very similar

Just been out and checked. Yes you are right. Similar but not Spessart.
