Geranium identification
I've got two hardy geraniums to identify.
One I got from a nearby plant honesty shop with no label. I'm thinking it looks like Geranium x cantabrigiense 'Biokovo' or similar - anyone agree?
(the little white bits are blossom falling off the Spirea)
The other is more of a mystery. I found a screwed up bit of paper in an old bag, saying 'geranium' and containing a few seeds. I have no recollection of collecting them - it could be years ago - but if I bothered to collect them I'm assuming it was one I particularly liked. The seeds germinated, the leaves are rather nice, but no flowers yet and I am getting impatient. Any ideas, from leaf alone?

The top photo, I'm thinking Geranium Macrorrhizum 'Album'. They tend to flower early.
