Pelargonium laxum

Pelargonium laxum

Family: Gerianaceae

It is an erect, branched stem succulent that grows to 30 cm in height. The stems are smooth, whitish and may appear twisted and curved. The inflorescence doubles the plant’s height. The leaves are simple, large with very deeply lobed sections like a fine network, similar to carrot leaves.

Sowing instructions: Seed should be sown in autumn, in a well-drained seedling mix, and need only be covered lightly with the sowing mix, clean coarse sand or milled bark to stop it from blowing away. The trays should be kept moist in a warm but shaded position.

Locality: Cradock. Harvest: October 2024
