Pelargonium 'Deerwood Lavender Lad'(Geranium Scented 'Deerwood Lavender Lad')Herb Plant

Geranium Scented  'Deerwood Lavender Lad'(Pelargonium  'Deerwood Lavender Lad')Herb Plant in 1L Pot

We are all accustomed to seeing traditional geraniums planted as a striking bedding plant in the summer, and while these are good examples of the pelargonium family, the scented-leaf geraniums are somewhat more demure, but equally as fabulous as plants, for both indoors and out. Great grown in containers on the patio where the smell of the leaves can be enjoyed as you brush past.

The scented-leaf geraniums tend to have very interesting leaf shapes and colours, ranging from dark green through to very pale lime, as well as variegated varieties too. The borders of the leaves can be deeply cut or frilled and vary in size, and of course, a host of wonderful fragrances to please the nose. Pelargonium  'Deerwood Lavender Lad' has extremely pretty dark pink /cerise flowers  which are held in clusters and are long lived up to six months (frost dependent). The leaves are faintly lavender scented. The height of this variety is quite small  approx 20cm high by 30cm spread, so great for small containers. 

Herb Usage

An infusion made from the leaves can be used to flavour drinks, cakes and even ice-cream especially useful if used with citrus fruits as it subtly enhances their flavour.
