Geraniums, previously known as pelargonium, are native to South Africa. When they reached Europe in the 17th century, they were introduced with the name they’re commonly known by today. Geraniums were believed to have healing powers and were often used to fight off bacterial infections.

These fresh flowers were previously used for medical purposes and essential oils. They can still be found in cosmetics and perfumes thanks to their inviting fragrance. Geraniums were also commonly used as flavouring agents and became very popular ornamental plants in the 18th century.
