Mentarosa

At first glance, Pelargonium Mentarosa closely resembles the classic Pelargonium graveolens. However, upon closer inspection, it reveals a distinctive character all its own. The foliage is wonderfully velvety (tomentose) to the touch, much like Pelargonium tomentosum, and releases a powerful, cooling mint fragrance rather than the traditional rose scent. This surprising combination—the look of a rose geranium with the scent of a peppermint one—inspired its evocative name.
