  • Description

  • Notes

Pelargonium hortorum is a shrubbby succulent perennial stemmed to 3 ft. or more. Round or kidney shaped leaves are velvety and hairy, soft to the touch, aromatic, with edges indistinctly lobed and scallop toothed. Single and double flowers are flatter and smaller than those of Pelargonium domesticum variety, but clusters bear more blossoms.
