Scented Geraniums-Pelargonium
These plants are called scented geraniums because they have fragrant foliage. Many scented geraniums are extremely decorative due to their unique leaves.
Essential oils from scented geraniums are used in perfumes and colognes. Scented geraniums also have culinary uses. The leaves can flavor cakes or can be used as a garnish.
Scented geraniums are easy to grow, both indoors and out. Bright light and well drained soil are required. Do not over fertilize your scented geraniums.
Among our varieties are citronella and an intense lemon- scented variety. Touch them and you will see why they are called scented geraniums!
