Some things you ought to know about scented geraniums: When brushed or rubbed, the foliage emits a citrusy, floral, minty, or resinous perfume, depending on the species or cultivar. Loose, open clusters of small white, pink, mauve, or lilac flowers on branching stalks add color in spring or summer.

These plants can be grown as border specimens or backgound shrubs; the sprawling types can be used as ground covers or trained against trellises. Scented geraniums can also be treated like summer bedding plants or grown in containers or hanging baskets; they also do well year round as houseplants.

Use fresh leaves of citrus, floral, or mint-scented geraniums in teas and to flavor baked goods, jam, jelly or vinegar. Toss flowers into a salad for color; add dried leaves to potpourri or infuse leaves in warm water for an aromatic, mildly astringent facial splash.

Growing and Care:

Scented geraniums do best in sun to part shade. Remove faded flowers to encourage further blooming. In pots, they do best when pot bound. Indoor temperature should be 65d to 70dF.

Hardiness: Zone 10

Height: 1 to 6 feet

well drained, fertile, moist soil, but never too wet
