| "Gemston" Angel Pelargonium |
Gemston, Angel Pelargonium.
I have no other information other than it was first mentioned in the
1992 Year Book of The British and European Geranium Society. It must also be in the National Collection of
Pelargoniums at Fibrex Nursery where this picture was taken. Gemston has magenta pink flowers, top petals slightly darker and with
white centre and feathering. As with
many of the Angel Pelargonium, the foliage is scented.
Steve Pollard gave a talk at the Farnborough Fuchsia & Pelargonium
Group that we both belong to – Steve is Chairman of the Society, and also of
the Pelargonium & Geranium Society. He told
the members what we should be doing with our club cuttings at this time of year
to be ready for the Annual Pelargonium Show in June. He also brought along several of his plants
that needed cutting back. He did say
this should have been done at the end of last summer but, as happens to all of
us from time to time, he had not been
able to get round to all of his plants. It is not too late to do this job, so luckily for us, he showed us how to take
cuttings and many of us came away with cutting material for some new plants. Thank you Steve.
