Can anyone identify this hardy Geranium? ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Sempervivum for Sale |

Could be variegated Bigroot geranium. Are the flowers magenta? |

In the 3rd picture there is a bit of mauve pink/ fuchsia color on the leave, I think that is what's left of the bloom. Sempervivum for Sale |

You might struggle with this one, there has been a named hardy Geranium with mottled leaves some years ago here but I don't remember the name. There is one with leaves like this called Geranium yoshinoi 'Confetti', and of course there's a lot of those which look different .. https://www.google.co.uk/searc... https://www.google.co.uk/searc... |

There is one called geranium macrorrhizum 'Variegata'. :+:+:+:+:+:+:+:+: Old gardeners never die. They are just pruned and repotted. |

Looks a lot like 'Yoahinoi Confetti' to me, more photos for comparison: http://gardenaway.com/search/p... http://www.terranovanurseries.... http://www.glasshouseworks.com... http://www.about-garden.com/a/... http://www.terranovanurseries.... ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

Another possibility, perhaps, is Geranium (Geranium thunbergii 'Jester's Jacket') @Chelle - any opinion on an ID for this Geranium?

Jester's Jacket is the one I couldn't recall, but as I remember it was supposed to have some pink splashes in the leaves. https://www.cgf.net/plantdetai... |

Translated ..Geranium thunbergii 'Jester's Jacket' comes from a sowing G. thunbergii, a species native to Japan with small white flowers and leaves marked brown. This highest form of 20 cm is often confused with G. yoshinoi 'Confetti' but it is probably from the same plant. The foliage of this geranium is remarkable, green splashed with cream and pink. In summer, small pale pink flowers appear on long trailing stems. In our garden, it grows geranium bordering massive part shade along with the delicate cyparissias Euphorbia 'Fens Ruby'. https://translate.google.co.uk... |

I can take a photo of Jester's Jacket today for comparison, but I doubt it'll be conclusive. BBL ![]() |

Looks like Geranium yoshinoi 'Confetti'. It's not a big flowering plant, just a few here and there. The flower color is right in the pictures. Sempervivum for Sale |

Geranium yoshinoi 'Confetti', I think it matches the closest. I bought this at a plant sale at the Miller Library horticultural center a few years ago, when I go this spring I will look for this again. Sempervivum for Sale |

Greene, I feel like maybe I cut you off. Did you have more ideas? ![]() Sempervivum for Sale |

Nope, I was just being nosey. I type so slowly I was probably still typing when you had already told everyone the answer. ![]() ![]() Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |
