Geranium, Anti Mosquito 'Mosquito Shock'
- Product number: 831575.1
- Origin: South Africa
- Latin: Pelargonium hybrids
This geranium has been specially selected for its high concentration of aromatic, essential oils.
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 window sill or in the bedroom: again, run your hands through them and mosquitoes won't come in so easily!
Furthermore, a few leaves in the bath are good for a wonderfully relaxing moment of enjoyment. Because the leaves are also edible, a leaf in tea or in iced tea and mixed drinks gives a wonderful scent and aroma! Further tips: use them to flavor sauces, ice cream, pastries, applesauce, and vinegar.
