  2. You are quite right Giga, sometimes the leaves on the coloured leaf zonals are brighter than the flowers.

  3. Some plant names just cry to be googled - I see it is named after a nursery.

  4. Yes, there was a specialist pelargonium & fuchsia nursery in Sussex called Warrenorth Nursery. Sadly it closed a few years ago. Andrew Simmons, son of the owners, hybrisided a lot of pelargoniums with the prefix "Warrenorth", and the coloured leaf ones are named after precious and semi precious stones.
