Geranium, Ginger 'Torento'

  • Product number: 831579.1
  • Origin: South Africa
  • Latin: Pelargonium x nervosum

The scent of lemon blends with an unmistakable hint of ginger: a true delight! The plants produce quite large, pale pink flowers with dark veins.

Scented geraniums are a welcome addition to the "sensory garden". Just run your hands through them, take a sniff... In a large pot, they can also be placed behind the windowsill or in the bedroom: again, run your hands through them and mosquitoes won't come in as easily!
Furthermore, a few leaves in the bath are good for a wonderfully relaxing moment of indulgence. Because the leaves are also edible, a leaf in tea or iced tea and mixed drinks provides a delicious scent and aroma! Further tips: use them to flavour sauces, ice cream, pastries, apple sauce and vinegar.
