The pelargonium is often mistaken for, and sometimes even mislabeled in home centers as a geranium.

It’s related but it most definitely is not a geranium. I grow these flowers in the summer – putting them in my hanging baskets, pots, and window boxes.

The flowers come in many different colours and they bloom on stiff stalks. As the blooms on the stalk fade the stalk dies off and dries up. I regularly cut out the dead and dying stocks in order to make the Pelargoniums bloom a little bit faster.

A number of people have contacted me in the last two weeks wanting to join Green Thumb Sunday but they have failed to let me know whether they’ve successfully put the blogroll on their sites. If you are new and you’re playing, but you don’t see your site listed on the blogroll – your likely one of the people that I’m talking about. Just let me know that you are playing and that you have the blogroll up and I’ll get you listed. Ok?

Gardeners, Plant and Nature lovers can join in every Sunday, visit As the Garden Grows for more information.
