Duo of Pink and White Erodiums
Duo of Pink and White Erodiums
Erodium variabile Bishop's Form, Album
Two small erodiums arrived in very good condition. I was already familiar with the Bishop's Form, which I had bought last year and which thrived wonderfully as ground cover. The flowering is very long, almost continuous. Very easy to grow.

Description
A Duo of Pink and White Erodiums, two different varieties that flower enthusiastically from late spring to late summer, even in poor, limestone, rocky soil, dry in summer. These are small perennial cushion plants, similar to bloody cranesbill, and they are used in the same way in the garden: in an alpine or classic rockery, above walls, in cracks between stones and sunny borders in well-drained soil. And even in pots. Erodium x variabile does not mind drought or cold, but dislikes winter humidity.
The Duo consists of:
- 1 Erodium x variabile 'Bishop's Form', with pink flowers veined with purple, very vibrant.
- 1 Erodium x variabile 'Album', with white flowers delicately veined with purple.
Plant these Erodiums in spring in well-drained soil, in full sun. They prefer neutral to limestone soils, rocky and not retaining water. Erodium x variabile is a small hardy and drought-tolerant plant that only dislikes very clayey and waterlogged soils in winter. It will thrive at the edge of a slightly raised bed (20 cm is enough) in a mixture of garden soil and gravel, in a good pocket of potting soil between the rocks of the rockery or on a slope where the soil has been well loosened.
Create a beautiful mosaic by combining this Duo of Pink and White Erodiums with Sedum dasyphyllum, Delosperma in pink, violet or white, Teucrium ackermanii or thymes, for example. They are perfect with our collection of hardy geraniums. You can grow them in pots in a mixture of equal parts potting soil, garden soil and gravel.

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).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
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 planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
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.
