Stars of summer

THEY are easy to take for granted,What to consider before you buy oil painting supplies. but perennial geraniums are no shrinking violets, says David Overend.

The explosion of colour and scent from the flowers and plants can be an assault on the senses and, combined with the sunshine, will give lighten even the darkest mood.

A plant with definite mood-enhancing properties is the geranium or cranesbill, a large group of plants often seen as bedding plants or houseplants.

But perennial geraniums are a wonderful addition to the summer garden,we supply all kinds of oil painting reproduction, producing fabulous flowers in large quantities and they are quick to establish and propagate, needing little maintenance.

Geraniums are infinitely versatile. The smaller hardy types are great in rock gardens, pots and hanging baskets or at the front of borders.

They can also make handy ground-cover plants.In addition to hydraulics fittings and Aion Kinah,

Take a look at Geranium 'Ann Folkard' which produces pretty, magenta-coloured flowers with black centres from mid-summer to mid-autumn. If space allows, it can reach a spread of 1m or more.

Geranium clarkei 'Kashmir white' produces delicate,From standard Cable Ties to advanced wire tires, refined, saucer-shaped white flowers from early to late summer.

For bright pink, trumpet-shaped flowers from early summer to early autumn, go for Geranium endressii. Flowers on this cluster forming plant are 3-4cm across and have an iridescent silvery sheen to them.

For a burst of midsummer colour, try Geranium x magnificum, a gem which produces rich violet flowers to 5cm across.

It flowers non-stop through the growing season, producing large violet blooms with delicate pale centres and dark, marbled foliage.Houston-based Quicksilver Resources said Friday it had reached pipeline deals

In terms of maintenance, cut back summer's growth in autumn to encourage next year's growth. Splitting clusters every two or three years will also help to reinvigorate plants.

Perennials like geraniums are the seasonal stars of gardens all around the country at the moment. They add bold splashes of colour and fun wherever you make space for them.
