Mark,
Some stunners in there.In particular iocastrum, triste, that first lost label one, plus that delightful lemon yellow one in the first posting. So much variety in the pelargonium species shapes and colours that I had no idea about.

A lovely collection Mark. I really like the yellow one too. An unusual color in Geraniaceae?

I offered seeds last year and from memory only Fermi took some
What you dont see from the photos is how small some of the flowers are. What I'll do this weekend is measure the flowers and add the info to each name above.
Many of these are bulbous that you, Paul, should be able to grow outside

Mark, do you have P. ionidiflorum? I used to have this one and lost it. If you do, I'd love to beg some seed from you.....

Mark,
Glorious pictures as always. The perfection of that pic of P. tricolor.... the shape of the flowers on punctatum (how VERY cool)..... the colour of that peltatum..... the delicacy of the acetosum.... just wonderful!! Very enjoyable.

One more from my collection is P. scandens. It's related to P. zonale but has palmate leaves

Nice flower on that one too. Could you possibly photograph a leaf as well, to show what you mean by the difference?
Thise stuff should really all be in a Pelargonium thread rather than here in the ID section. Too interesting to be hidden away here in the bowels of the SRGC.
edit by Maggi.... and so it has been moved to Flowering Now!!
