Geraniums are easily grown and can transform problem places such as dry shade, hot sunny banks or moist shade. 'Striatum' (also known as 'Splish Splash') has eye-catching white flowers which are splashed with mauve-blue. These appear in early to mid-summer, and will sometimes come again in early autumn if the plant is cut back immediately after the first flush fades.
