Description:

The name of this species comes from the Latin and literally means "rural", in reference to the grassy or coastal habitat of the succulent. It is a pretty thin and flexible plant that does not exceed 10 cm in height and maintains a rather compact shape. It consists of a tuberous and elongated caudex of a few centimeters, generally underground, from which in the vegetative season ovate leaves of a beautiful emerald green furrowed by obvious veins and covered by a slight down that makes it almost silvery in the sun. The foliage often takes a pinnate shape, enriched by serrated and asymmetric margins that give the plant a wavy and pleasant trend. One undoubtedly loved feature of Pelargonium are its simple but elegant flowers: the elongated petals on the notes of white fade into violet reflections that make the plant delicate and original at the same time!

Plant care:

It requires a lot of light throughout the year, however, avoid direct sun rays, especially during the hottest hours of the day, as long as they might burn the leaves.

It is preferable to keep it at mild temperatures and never below 10 °C, for this reason it is recommended to shelter it during the winter period.

Water moderately, only when the soil is completely dry. It is enough to water the plant once a week in spring and summer, once a month in autumn and to suspend watering completely in winter.

A well-draining soil is an optimal solution, even better if further enriched with inert materials such as pumice or lapilli.

They do not need frequent fertilization, it is sufficient to dilute the fertilizer with watering once a year.
