Lemon Geranium

This appears to be a Lemon Geranium – of course we’ll trust your nose on this! Lemon geranium needs full sunlight and thrives in relatively cool daytime temperatures between 65 and 75 degrees Fahrenheit, with temperatures 10 to 15 degrees cooler during the night. In climates with warm, non-freezing winters, plant lemon geranium in any well-drained soil. In cooler climates, plant lemon geranium in a container with a drainage hole so the plant can be moved indoors in autumn. The flowers are pale and small but beautiful! The leaves contain essential oils which produce a wonderful aroma when you rub a leaf between your fingers. Scented geraniums are edible but only if you are positive it has been raised organically and there has been no chemical fungicide or insecticide sprayed on or near the plant. There are many features on the website regarding the culinary uses of scented geraniums such as www..sfgate.com/…/Scented-geraniums-expand-a-garden-s-cooking-2493855 .php‎
