The World of Geraniums: They go way beyond the common window box red! A bouquet of handcrafted cut roses: Eufloria Flowers; Dave' Faves: Arctostaphylos, Lavender; Beavers

The World of Geraniums

Hardy Geraniums are colorful herbaceous perennials and Pelargoniums are woody tender plants. The plants seen today are all from the huge collection amassed by Robin Parer. She is considered one of the world's experts in these fine plants for gardens, patios and pots. The compact Angel, Pansy Faced and Scented Leaf Pelargoniums are ideal as patio or indoor plants, while the hardy geraniums are perfect blended with roses, perennials or sprawling among shrubs in the garden.

Her mail order nursery, Geraniaceae, is open by appointment for visits or via Robin's website, www.Geraniaceae.com.
