With a common name of “Morning Widow,” I expected my clone of this plant to have dark, depressing flowers. However, whichever clone it is, the flowers are a nice purple shade. The plant is impressively floriferous, too.
I don’t remember where I got this plant. I think I’ve had it about ten years. It is planted amid its cousin, Geranium macrorrhizum, so I don’t even notice it until it soars above the shorter cranes bill with its flower spikes.
My 2020 plans for this plant include trying to grow some seeds I harvested from it last year, and to feed it a bit and enjoy its flowers, and probably take a bunch of photos of it–that seems to be what I do!
