Pelargonium sidoides
With heart-shaped velvety silver-grey leaves with scalloped edges, it is much admired for both foliage and flower, along with its beneficial root extract, used for centuries to treat respiratory conditions. AÂ perfect front of border, rockery or container plant in a sunny free-draining position.
How to grow
Performs best in full sun and free-draining soils of moderate fertility, with some afternoon shade in hot climates. drought-tolerant once established but will benefit from supplementary watering in extended dry periods. Deadhead regularly to prolong flowering and trim to shape after flowering to maintain compact habit.
