Help with identifying this geranium

22 years ago

I am new to geraniums, quickly becoming addicted I might add. I bought this geranium at a local plant club sale and it was labled 'Johnsons's Blue' I have come to realize that this is not the case (I think). Could anyone possibly tell me what variety this is? sanguineum? Thanks so much for any help.

I checked out Max Frei, it looks very similar but a little more frilly on the edges of the flower, also it appeared to be more pink than mine but I admit it is very difficult to tell via internet photos.

Thanks very much for your input :)
