Rose Geranium PLANT – Pelargonium graveolens – Heirloom Perennial Bush

The Rose Geranium… <3 The rose-scented geranium variety with beautiful fragrant leaves and flowers… Rose geranium is an evergreen perennial bush mostly known for its relaxing properties along with some other wonderful health benefits. The Rose geranium infused oil can be used in all sorts of beauty products including oil-based perfume 🙂

Rose Geranium is a perennial, evergreen fragrant bush with lots of health benefits and has many uses in traditional medicine. It can be grown in a pot, too.

The better the soil, the quicker and better it grows. All my plants grow happily in raised garden beds. Even if it is just 15-20cm above the ground level, it makes a huge difference! A sunny position is not recommended for this plant.

Planting and growing tips:

1. Give it a good drink and place it in a half-shade position out of the wind.
2. Leave it in the original pot for a few days until it recovers from the journey.
3. Re-pot or plant into the ground at the latest when the roots start to come out of the bottom holes.
4. Watering straight after planting is essential! From then on as required.
5. It doesn’t like to sit in water so a well-drained position is best. All our edibles grow happily and quickly in slightly raised garden beds.
6. Gotu kola grows best in shade and half shade and in any type of soil, however, the better the soil, the quicker and better your plants will grow.

Additional notes:

• The price is for one young plant in a pot, coming from my own plant, naturally grown with lots of love in my permaculture food forest in Pacific Haven QLD Australia. Sending within Australia only, not to NT WA TAS. Pick up by appointment only.
• I am not keeping this plant in a pot as it grows too quickly. I usually have a few pots available but if there are more orders than plants, I will make a fresh plant from the cuttings straight after the payment, and send it to you after it has been established which takes about 1-3 weeks.
• Most of our nursery plants grow in a half-shade. Introducing them to the sun slowly before replanting them to their permanent position will promote healthy growth.
• Do your own research before trying any new foods. Please also note our disclaimer in the footer of this page.
