Pelargonium gibbosum<\/i>, an evening fragrant species of Pelargonium (Geranium) from South Africa seems virtually boring when compared to other species and other hybids which are in bloom now in the greenhouse. Tis, the Geranium (Pelargonium) season.<\/p>\n

A collection of species and hybrid Pelargoniums blooms both in the greenhouse, and our on the display steps on my deck. May and June marks the peak season for bloom, with these South African jewels, and although you might think that the classic red geranium is boring and common, the truth is that the genus has many, many, many hybrids, species and oddities that makes the genus highly collectable.<\/p>\n
