description for "Scented Geraniums: Pelargonium gibbosum"
Scented Geranium 'Knotted' is perhaps the most unusual plant in this collection. 'Knotted' is a medium-sized plant, with glossy grey/green leaves. The nodes are enlarged, giving the stems the appearance of having elbows. The flowers of this scented geranium are yellow/mustard/brown. This will grow just fine in your garden, but it deserves your most splendid pot and a spot in the center of attention. Tender perennial. Overwinters outdoors in zones 8-10; should be potted and brought indoors in mid-autumn in colder climates.
