I got these 2 last year at a local nursery. Get a perennial every week for $1.99 there was no ID and girl didn't know what they were. I will appreciate whatever help I get. Thanks Buckimom
Need ID on these two please
Here is the other one.
The top one is hardy geranium/cranesbill. The bottom one looks like a delphinium.
Dear Hart,Thanks so much. I thought that bottom one was a delphinium wonder why she didn't tell me that when I bought it. Are they that tempermental? I feel like an idiot for asking for an ID on such a common plant, but obviously I have never had one. Thanks for the ID on the first plant also. I like the bloom very petite.

The second one looks like another geranium to me.

I have never had a geranium either I guess. I just plant em and let em grow. We'll all find out what it is eventuallly.
I'm just growing my first geraniums this year too.
Please keep us posted!

Hey, mom :) Yeah, the first one is a hardy geranium :) I just planted six of them this spring! :) A little different, but same kind of plant.
I'll get back to you on the 2nd pic :)
I agree with Steve on the second one too but I only have one of the geraniums so I may not know what I'm talking about LOL. :)
The first one I agree is definitely geranium probably sanquineum...the other I do not think looks like the maculatum.
The second one could be trollius, but it looks a little too evenly toothed compared to mine. I regularly have to look at my markers as I have both geraniums and trollius in the same area and the trollius seeds itself and fools me many springs into thinking it is a geranium.

We were in Chicago with Hugahosta and her family this weekend .Jacci (Hugahosta) is sure the first one is a geranium and probably the second one also after seeing them at the Chicago Botanical Garden. Beautiful garden,we are so glad we included it in the trip. And perfect weather for walking around the gardens.
