Hello Astrid,
All Geraniaceae plants have 2 seed leaves on germination and can sometimes
'appear' to be 2 plants but will eventually prove to be just one.
Those of you who have visited my page may know that I had a beautiful St.
Bernard dog. Tiny died at 12 years of age a couple of months ago, a very
good age for her breed. Despite having read the misadventures of various
Robiners dogs and cats I decided to buy a new 4 legged friend and after
much research settled on a Chinese Crested Powder Puff dog. Yes I'd never
heard of such an animal before either. I can say that after only 2 weeks I
could not be happier with my new pup and no doubt you will all eventually
be burdened to find her on my web site. I've called her Zelda ( or Zell for
short ) . Not quite sure where I heard that name, it just came to me.
Regards
Alby
Geraniaceae is all around the World
