Storkbill

Pelargonium zonale

Description:

Pelargonium leaves are usually alternate, and palmately lobed or pinnate, often on long stalks, and sometimes with light or dark patterns. The erect stems bear five-petaled flowers in umbel-like clusters called pseudoumbels. The shapes of the flowers have been bred to a variety ranging star-shaped to funnel-shaped, and colors include white, pink, red, orange-red, fuchsia to deep purple. The Pelargonium flower has a single symmetry plane, which distinguishes it from the Geranium flower which has radial symmetry.
