Pelargonium is a genus of flowering plants which includes about 200 species of perennials, succulents, and shrubs, commonly known as geraniums or storksbills. Confusingly, Geranium is the correct botanical name of a separate genus of related plants often called Cranesbills. Both genera are in the Family Geraniaceae. They are drought and heat tolerant, but can tolerate only minor frosts. Some species are extremely popular garden plants, grown as bedding plants in temperate regions.

Scented geraniums (Pelargonium) such as the rose scented geranium, mint scented geranium, lemon scented geranium, or citronella scented geranium are delightful, easy care, fragrant additions to your flower garden. Grow these either outside in the garden, outdoors as a container plant, or indoors on the window sill as a house plant. But these unique, collectible, fragrant plants are not prized for their flowers –scented geranium blooms are not fragrant and tend to be small rather than showy. Instead, these plants are called scented geraniums because they have fragrant foliage. Many gardeners collect these perfumed beauties. Once youve tried a scented geranium or two, I bet you will want a scented geranium collection, too. Once you grow a scented geranium or two, whether you call it a geranium or a pelargonium, I suspect you will be hooked on the fragrance, beautiful good looks, and easy care!
