Light Requirements: Full sun to part shade

Soil Preference: Moist well drained soil; adaptable to clay, loam, and sandy soils

Native Status

This hybrid geranium is not native to North America. 'Rozanne' was developed from Asian species and is valued as an ornamental perennial for its exceptionally long bloom period and adaptable garden performance.

WILDLIFE & INSECTS

Butterflies

  • Attracts butterflies throughout its exceptionally long bloom period with open violet blue flowers that provide easy access to nectar.

Bees

  • Draws native bees and bumblebees which visit the open flowers for nectar and pollen throughout the summer.

Spacing & Landscape Use

Spacing Recommendations

  • Space 24 - 36 in apart to give its spreading habit room to fill out without crowding neighboring plants.

Landscape Placement

  • Excellent for perennial borders, cottage gardens, rock gardens, and groundcover plantings where its long flowering season can soften the edges of taller plants.

Companion Plants

  • Coreopsis verticillata 'Zagreb' (Threadleaf Coreopsis) - Provides fine textured foliage and bright yellow flowers that create a strong color contrast with the violet blue blooms.
  • Echinacea purpurea (Purple Coneflower) - Adds upright structure and complementary summer flowers while extending pollinator interest.
  • Heuchera 'Palace Purple' (Coral Bells) - Brings dark foliage that contrasts with the bright flowers while tolerating similar sun and shade conditions.
  • Salvia nemorosa 'Caradonna' (Meadow Sage) - Adds upright purple flower spikes that complement Rozanne's softer spreading form.
  • Calamagrostis acutiflora 'Karl Foerster' (Feather Reed Grass) - Provides vertical structure that rises above the low spreading habit and creates a balanced layered planting.
