Description
Geranium is a genus of 422 species of flowering annual, biennial, and perennial plants that are commonly known as the cranesbills.
Confusingly, "geranium" is also the common name of members of the genus Pelargonium, which are also in the Geraniaceae family.
Gardeners and the horticultural trade often refer to true geraniums as "hardy geraniums", to distinguish them from the less hardy pelargoniums (generally grown as annuals in temperate climes), and most garden "geraniums" (without the 'hardy' appellation) are in fact pelargoniums (storksbills), as opposed to true geraniums (cranesbills).
The shape of the flowers offers one way of distinguishing between the two genera Geranium and Pelargonium. Geranium flowers have five very similar petals, and are thus radially symmetrical (actinomorphic), whereas Pelargonium flowers have two upper petals which are different from the three lower petals, so that the flowers have a single plane of symmetry (zygomorphic).
Geranium est un genre de plantes herbacées de la famille des Geraniaceae. Les feuilles lobées, presque séquées, à nervures palmées sont opposées sur la tige. Les tiges ainsi que le dessous des feuilles sont pubescents. les feuilles atteignent 15 cm de diamètre.
Les plantes nommées communément « géraniums » par les fleuristes n'appartiennent pas au genre Geranium mais au genre Pelargonium. Les géraniums des fleuristes sont des espèces et cultivars de Pelargonium.
