Species Pelargonium. Vivid pink single flowers, upper two petals look almost joined. The bottom three flare out. Large round ‘zonale’ leaves with a faint brown marking. Structure similar to all zonal forms available today, fleshy and thick stemmed. In the wild it is found in from the Eastern to Western Cape Province.
