If you're looking for a plant that not only adds beauty to your garden but also serves a practical purpose, then Pelargoniums, or 'Scented Geraniums,' are an excellent choice. These plants have a delightful nostalgic scent that will transport you to another time. Although often mistaken for geraniums, Pelargoniums are derived from the word 'Pelargos,' meaning "stork's bill," and their unique shape makes them stand out in any garden.

One popular variety that is becoming increasingly popular is the 'Citrosa' type. Not only does it enhance the visual attractiveness of your garden, but it also assists in repelling mosquitoes, black flies, and other pesky insects. The invigorating fragrance of citronella, extracted from the leaves of the 'Citronella' plant, can be utilized in the creation of potpourris, perfumes, and flavoring preserves. The highly fragrant Scented Geranium 'Citronella' makes for an eye-catching addition when cultivated in a pot or container, which also helps manage its rapid growth.

Just water them deeply when the soil dries. They do well in full or part sun. Indoor Mosquito plants should be kept near a sunny window, preferably a south or west facing window.
