Description
Le Geranium sanguineum ‘Album’ est une ancienne sélection à fleurs blanches du géranium sanguin. De grandes corolles d’un blanc pur, qui se détachent bien au-dessus d'un feuillage sombre, confèrent à cette petite vivace un aspect frais et naturel au début de l’été. La plante s’élargit progressivement, et son feuillage découpé prend de belles teintes rouges et orangées en automne. Très rustique, solide et peu exigeante, cette variété convient particulièrement aux bordures ensoleillées, aux rocailles et aux terrains secs en été.
Le géranium sanguin appartient à la famille des Géraniacées. C’est une vivace herbacée : son feuillage disparaît pendant l’hiver avant de repousser depuis la souche au printemps. L’espèce sauvage Geranium sanguineum est indigène d’une grande partie de l’Europe, France comprise, et son aire naturelle s’étend jusqu’à la Sibérie occidentale et au Caucase. On la rencontre notamment dans des lisières chaudes, des pelouses sèches, sur des terrains rocheux ou calcaires et jusque dans certaines dunes littorales. 'Album' est une forme horticole blanche cultivée depuis plus d’un siècle dans les jardins. La plante développe des tiges ramifiées qui partent d’une souche rhizomateuse et s’écartent progressivement, formant une touffe basse et assez ouverte. Elle atteint 30 à 45 cm de hauteur et peut couvrir 60 à 80 cm, voire jusqu'à 1 m d’envergure. Les feuilles vert foncé sont divisées presque jusqu’à leur base en lobes étroits, eux-mêmes découpés. Elles prennent en fin de saison des tons jaunes, orangés puis rougeâtres avant de disparaître. De fin mai à fin juin, voire début juillet, s’ouvrent des fleurs solitaires, en forme de coupe largement ouverte, composées de cinq pétales arrondis. Elles atteignent 3 à 4 cm de diamètre et sont d’un blanc pur. Cette variété a reçu l’Award of Garden Merit de la Royal Horticultural Society en 1993. Comme l’espèce dont elle est issue, elle montre une bonne capacité à pousser dans des sols assez pauvres et à traverser les périodes sèches une fois bien enracinée. Le calcaire ne lui pose pas de problème.
Le Geranium sanguineum 'Album' est une plante robuste et polyvalente : il s'utilise en couvre-sol, rocaille, talus, pied de mur, lisière sèche à fraîche, premier plan de massif, voire dans une plantation assez libre et dans un jardin naturaliste. Il s'associe facilement à des vivaces simples comme le Dianthus carthusianorum, l’Origanum vulgare ‘Compactum’, le Nepeta ‘Junior Walker’ ou l'Erodium variabile ‘Album’. On peut aussi le laisser courir entre des pierres ou au pied d’arbustes peu denses, où son feuillage découpé formera à terme une nappe agréablement colorée de rouge en automne.

Planting and care
Geranium sanguineum ‘Album’ should be planted in spring or autumn, in full sun or partial shade. It is happy in ordinary soil, even poor, stony or chalky, but well drained. In heavy clay, loosen the planting area and avoid places where water collects in winter. Water regularly during the first few weeks and in its first summer if the weather is very dry. Once well established, a clump then needs little water and tolerates occasional drought. There is no need to fertilise heavily, as this risks producing softer growth. The plant spreads over the years; divide it in spring if you wish to propagate it or limit its spread.

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.
