Scented Geraniums

Scented geraniums are a group of geranium species known for their fragrant leaves, which release pleasant scents when touched or brushed against. These plants come in a variety of scents, including lemon, rose, mint, and spice. Scented geraniums are often used in sensory gardens, herb gardens, or as container plants where their fragrance can be easily enjoyed. In addition to their aromatic qualities, scented geraniums produce attractive flowers and foliage, making them versatile additions to the garden. These plants are typically grown as annuals in colder climates or as perennials in warmer regions. Scented geraniums prefer well-drained soil and full to partial sun. Regular pruning helps maintain their shape and encourages new growth. Scented geraniums are valued for their low maintenance requirements and their ability to add both sensory appeal and visual beauty to the landscape.
