Mark, what colour is the flower?
The leaves are beautiful by themselves.

Jamie,

With no necrosis of the variegated spots then the leaf nematodes should thankfully be out of the equation.  Good to hear.  Still a most unusual form of variegation if genetic.  Good stuff!!  8)

Here is Geranium phaeum 'Springtime'.  I have to admit that I have mixed feelings about some variegated foliages, as to whether they look interesting or sort of unhealthy!
