The common annual geranium (not a true geranium at all, so don’t be fooled by the name) makes for a floriferous and showy mound of scarlet – a fiery beacon in the garden or on the patio, where it will regale passers-by in nothing short of a shouting bout. All noise and hoopla and bright, flaring color – a flower after my own heart.
I hung a couple of these from our canopy last year but wasn’t impressed enough to do it again this season. These sorts of annuals are everywhere, so I can get my fix when I visit my parents or ride around the neighborhood. Beauty’s where you find it.
