Outstanding foliage - its leaves are lime green with silver veins and reddish undersides. One of the finest, unique groundcovers for full shade and dappled shade. Needs excellent drainage - it is often used in rock gardens trailing over walls. Grows 1’ - 1.5’ tall. As an added bonus, Strawberry Geranium produces dainty white flowers borne above the foliage in early spring. Very hardy and decorative.
