Mimy,
Do you know of any publications in English that tell the Dutch
version of the history of the pelargoniums being brought out of the
Cape? I read in Cape Floral Kingdom by Conrad Lighton in his chronology
that in "1687 Ten species of Cape pelargonium in Leyden Botanic
Gardens, Holland." I have searched on-line trying to find out what they
were to no avail. Am wondering about the early history in general.
