Cranesbill with Dew

Cranesbill with Dew

this little Cranesbill (or true Geranium) was blooming near our lily pond today, 23 November 2005, along with quite a few others. Was pleased to capture the dew droplets on this one.

We also have the blue variety, which has larger and Blue flowers, and those are Johnson's Blue cranesbills.

just noticed, you can see the pics of the Johnson's blue variety on the page at the Right side of this large version. those are the ones which cascade down towards the lily pond, mentioned above.

Hi Lulu, thanks very much for the nice comments. Good to see you here again.

these low growing perennials are a great addition to any garden, am hoping you can find them over there. The Johnson's Blue has a larger blue flower, there are some pics on my gallery of that variety also.

the Johnson's Blue cranesbill tumble over the wall towards our little lily pond and do look very pretty. Also, they make an attractive seed pod, like a cranes bill, hence the name.

This is really beautiful. I love what you are doing with the framing. It really makes the photo look professional. Its also nice that you have added the name to the bottom of it. I have never seen these flowers. They are pretty and very delicate looking.
