Attar (perfume) of Roses is just that. When blooming, it is covered with little pink balls of flowers. Very cute!

Crowfoot - Overachiever

Pelargonium 'Crowfoot' is a mint scented geranium.

This darling scented geranium has finely divided leaves with a light mint scent. I thought it was going to bloom itself to death! Twice I disbudded it because it looked stressed. It promptly greened up and went back to blooming. It produces seed, too!

Pelargonium 'Abundance' - The Truest Plant Name Ever

Pelargonium 'Abundance' is a very heavy bloomer
Pelargonium 'Abundance' is a very heavy bloomer
Abundance lives up to its name in every possible way. It covers itself with blooms for a long period of time. Almost every blooms creates a seedhead. The lemon-scented foliage is thick and bushy.
I want to thank reader Jeanie for bringing Abundance to my attention. It's my favorite "new-this-year" scented geranium.
