Description
The Pelargonium 'Brunswick' is a fragrant geranium with very deeply cut foliage, a fresh and floral scent, also reminiscent of lavender. It produces very pretty flowers in summer, quite large, of a dark coral pink colour, tinged with an almost black red halo on the two upper petals. It forms a very beautiful bush, with a ramified growth and an erect habit, adorned with shiny evergreen leaves, particularly deeply cut. This plant is frost-sensitive and needs to be protected from frost in winter. It thrives in full sun, in a well-drained soil, even limestone and occasionally dry in summer.
The Pelargonium 'Brunswick' belongs to the Geraniaceae family. It is a hybrid derived from Pelargonium domesticum, obtained by A. Popperwell. When grown in a pot, the 'Brunswick' variety reaches about 40 cm (16in) in height and 50 cm (20in) in width. Its pubescent and soft branches, covered with green hairs when young, become woody over time. They bear evergreen leaves in winter, highly aromatic, divided and toothed. Their surprisingly shiny colour is a rather dark green. This pelargonium blooms in summer. The flowers are quite large, sometimes measuring more than 2.5 cm (1in) in length and of a bright coral pink colour. The 2 upper petals are marked with spots of an almost black red. They are slightly larger than the 3 lower petals.
The Pelargonium 'Brunswick' is a wonderful plant, exotic and undemanding, as beautiful to look at as it is delightful to smell. So plant it, in a pot or in the ground, in a place where you can enjoy it, along a path or in a large pot, on the terrace or in the conservatory, never too far from the house, or even inside the house, in a barely heated room in winter. We were captivated, one day after the rain, by a bed of fragrant geraniums and immersed ourselves in a small symphony of delicate scents. In very mild climates, it is a plant that perfectly withstands summer drought and requires very little maintenance, making it valuable for dry gardens, by the seaside.

Planting and care
Plant your young plants in open ground after the last frosts, in a sunny position. You can also plant them in a pot placed in a sheltered location, which you will bring out in May. If you install them in open ground, wait until the frosts have passed. Fragrant geraniums require well-drained soil, but not necessarily very rich. Water moderately. In a pot, regular watering is necessary in summer. You can keep your geraniums by bringing them indoors under a veranda or a cold greenhouse in winter. They can tolerate a light frost, but will not survive the winter in the garden.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
