Geranium Max Frei

A Ground-Cover Gem — Vibrant Colour All Summer Long

Geranium 'Max Frei' is a compact, mounding hardy geranium that delivers a spectacular show of rich magenta-pink blooms with darker veining from early summer right through to autumn. One of the most free-flowering of all the hardy geraniums, it forms a neat, weed-suppressing carpet of deeply lobed foliage that also turns beautiful shades of red and orange in autumn.
