Geocache Description:


Congrats to MythicalMarbles 240 for FTF

PLEASE wear bright orange during hunting season!

This geoart is in honor of my mother-in-law, formerly known as the flower lady of Portville. The cache names are just some of the varieties she has in her gardens.  Read the description below to find the information needed to get the final coordinates of the cache.

Geranium, Crane’s Bill: Bursting with flowers, hardy geraniums also enjoy a lush foliage which adds valuable texture in the garden. Incredibly tough, pest and disease resistant, they give a lot and require very liggle.  Most hardy geraniums are ridiculously easy to grow. All they require is well-drained, fertile, and moist soil.  A few species are even reliably drought tolerant in normal summer conditions.  There is a hardy geranium to suit most garden situations. Some do incredibly well in sunny borders while others prefer woodland settings. Some make fabulous weed-choling ground covers while others are well suited to containers or rock gardens. Most bloom profusely over a very long season, extending from spring to late fall.  There are about 300 species of geraniums.
