Description
Description
Pelargonium Islington Peppermint has leaves that resemble its progenitor P. tomentosum but in miniature, and they give off a pleasant mint scent. The small, simple flowers captivated me the first time I saw them: three white lower petals, while the two upper ones are an intense burgundy red. A contrast that is as daring as it is perfect and natural. Little gems. Even if the flowering does not last very long, it is worth the wait to see these little gems. Small plant.
Year of introduction: 1990
