Perennial of the Year Each year the members of the Perennial Plant Association select a new Perennial Plant of the Year. We are pleased to announce and present the winner for 2008: Rozanne Cranesbill Geranium (Geranium ‘Rozanne’) Truly one of the longest-flowering perennials of any type, ‘Rozanne’ bursts into flower in early summer and keeps blooming well into the autumn. It forms a midsized mound of deeply-cut green leaves, with saucer-shaped flowers of glowing violet blue. Excellent near the front to middle of a border and also grows well in mixed containers or even window boxes. For more information about this year's winner, click the link above.
