The Plant list
PELARGONIUM australe
Species Pelargonium. A variable form that has been found to be more common in Australia as well as Tasmania and New Zealand. We believe our form to have originated in Tasmania, it has white blooms with delicate red veins. The foliage is the most distinct of all and grows as rosettes of dark green leaves with red stems and pale pink undersides. Truly beautiful although difficult to propagate. Ht 40cm Sp 60cm. Sun or part shade. Not very tolerant of our damp winters, keep dry, well lit and frost free.
Peristera Group. First introduced in the 1800’s. Willdenow
7cm Pot
Pelargonium orders will be dispatched Spring 2025
