Possible Geranium in Name That Plant Forum

21 years ago

Can you experts take a look?

One poster seems to think its a Pelargonium.

Another that it might be a true Geranium.

It obviously isnt G. 'Johnson's Blue' as marked and doesn't really strike me as being either.

There are two plants in the pot. One has a pink edge and some white variegation. The other is plain green, but otherwise they look identical. The link below will take you to the variegate. In that post there is a link to the plain. The red edge might make you think zonal, but that just doesn't seem right.

Hope you can help.

Let me try that link again....

What true Geraniums are tri-colored? Do I have a new mutation here?

The other thought is that its a weed and a variegated mutation. (The geranium probably just hasn't emerged yet.) I was leaning in that direction but I posted in the weed forum and both respondants thought it looks like a geranium.
