Hello, I do not have mavis simpson hardy geranium but I have Wargarve pink and cambridge hardy geraniums. Both do have pink flowers is you are interested in trading your miscanthus grass cabaret. Tita e-mail address mamamy@msn.com

yes I grow them inground AND pots.I find the lovely ivy geraniums do quite well as hanging plants.One in a coir and wire hanger and several in conrete urns and look alikes. I also have HUGE orange ones in blue glazed pots I must say that I think the variety has alot to do with how they look and also you must remember that EPCOT changes their plants as soon as they begin to look poorly.If you notice the impatience had holes where the plants wee to be replaced.The little movie inside gave a talk on it. I know some people do not do well with geraniums in the summer but I have had the same ones for years. I bought them at Rock City Nursery who starts their own in greenhouses and I must say the varieties are great. I do not feel they need all that much water and in fact some get totally forgotten and still hang in there.

I started a couple of rhizomes for Johnson's blue and one of them (the thicker stronger one has these stubby, super thick, hard pale colored leaves. It makes me think of the African violets, peppers, torenias and dahlias that I believe were infected by broad mites (the source being the African violet). The plants start making thick, distorted, curled leaves, the growth stunts, the buds fail to develop. Being microscopic, it is hard to be sure. Chopping off the infected parts helps a bit but not much. I have previously tried the hot water treatment and even miticide (Oberon 4sc) with little success. It's now in my growing space and strikes at will. Someone please tell me this is just weird stuff sprouting cranesbill geraniums do and nothing to wood about.
