Information About

Geranium




  • The Genus '' Geranium '' of flowering plants, usually called the cranesbills or (somewhat redundantly) "hardy geraniums".

  • Members of the related genus '' Pelargonium '', which are commonly called Geranium s by gardeners and in the horticultural trade.


This confusing situation arises because Pelargoniums were formerly classified in genus ''Geranium''. The two genera are closely related, and both belong to the family Geraniaceae .
