We have this Perlargonium in our garden - not sure where I got it from
(likely a 'stolen' cutting from somewhere) as it was too long ago to
recall.

Had it in a pot for years and finally put it into the group about 10
years ago. It was at that time that I discovered what it can do. Grows
large and vigorously. The foliage is beautiful - interesting
undulating edges that are crisply defined. It also flowers well, but
the year-round foliage is the main attraction for us. Here you see it
growing in a hole in a paved area (simpler than repaving) from rather
poor and heavy soil, creating a nice green accent in an otherwise
stark and boring spot. Robin Parer once weighed in on this one - it is
from a group of hybrids she knows about but does not focus on in her
Pelargonium nursery.
