Pelargonium
'Madame Salleron'
Madame Salleron Geranium
"
I was first exposed to this plant as a student at the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens and have seen it remain in botanical commerce through thirty years of horticultural cultivation. Suited to edging and planters and pots but not to be grown for its rather weak blooms.
