A Note on the Difference between Geraniums and Pelargoniums
These are confused all the time. What you know to be Geraniums are probably Pelargoniums. And it has been a fascinating journey out of the darkness for me!
The physical distinction can be hard to spot as the details are in the number of petals.
Geraniums
- Flowers have five similar petals
- Considered perennials that come back year after year.
- Bloom, Dormancy, Bloom, Dormancy > and Repeat.
- To ease confusion, they are sometimes called ‘Hardy Geraniums’.
Pelargonium
- Flowers have two upper petals which are different from the three lower petals
- Annuals (can be semi hardy in some climates but in general are sold for one seasons use)
- Bloom, The End.
- To ease confusion, they are sometimes called ‘Tender Geraniums’.
The Tales:
This variety is a spontaneous cultivar of the natural hybrid Geranium x cantabrigiense, derived from
- Geranium dalmaticum from the Balkan coast
- Geranium macrorrhizum from the southern coast
This makes this cultivar … very hardy and very drought tolerant.
