Description
Hardy Geranium cinereum 'Jolly Jewel™ Purple' is part of the Jolly Jewel series, made up of floriferous and brightly coloured plants. Its flowers are very luminous, a vivid purplish pink, streaked with purple. They keep blooming throughout summer on a cushion of cut leaves in a slightly greyish matt green. Plant this small perennial between the stones of a rockery or at the edge of a well-drained bed. You can also grow it in a pretty pot on the balcony!
A member of the Geraniaceae family, Geranium 'Jolly Jewel Purple' is a cultivar derived from the alpine species Geranium cinereum, the ashy geranium, widespread from Southern Europe to the Balkans. It is part of the Jolly Jewels™ series, developed in the Netherlands by breeder Marco van Noort. The series comprises ten different colours, including 'Purple'.
This geranium forms a dense cushion of dark grey-green foliage. The deeply lobed leaves are about 5 to 7 cm in diameter; they are rounded with fine divisions that are soft to the touch. The overall plant reaches approximately 20 cm in height with a spread of 25 cm, within two to three years. The leaves can be evergreen or deciduous. Flowering extends from May or June until September or October, depending on conditions. The flowers, in the shape of an open cup, 3 - 4 cm in diameter, display a saturated colour. They are carried above the foliage, grouped in 2 to 3 flowers per flower stem.
Geranium 'Jolly Jewel Purple' can be used in rock gardens, at the front of perennial beds or in sunny borders, in afternoon partial shade. It will look its best in a window box or a flowering pot. It combines well with plants having the same requirements, such as candytuft, aubrieta, sea thrift, and dwarf asters... It is an ideal perennial for alpine gardens and very mineralised landscapes.

Planting and care
Plant the hardy geranium cinereum Jolly Jewel Purple in well-drained soil, even stony and slightly lime-bearing, not too dry in summer to support its flowering. It is content with poor soils and hates stagnant moisture in winter, which can sometimes cause its roots to rot. To flower well and display a compact habit, it requires a very sunny exposure in the morning, but semi-shaded in the afternoon.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
