Pelargonium 'Capitatum' in Terracotta Pot

First introduced into England in 1690 by Hans William Bentinck, head steward to William of Orange, Pelargonium ‘Capitatum’ is a true species form, originally found growing in the sand dunes of coastal South Africa. Bearing soft mauve, pink flowers, it is sometimes confused with cultivars such as ‘Pink Capricorn’ or ‘Attar of Roses’. Leaves are velvety and rose scented, making it especially valued for both its fragrance and ornamental appeal. Each plant arrives planted in a terracotta 15cm pot.
