Pelargonium is a perennial species of flowering plants. This species includes about 200 species of tender and shrub plant that is also known as Geraniums. Although, Geranium is the botanical name of the separate species which in turn is related to Cranesbills, but both these species come under the family of the Geraniaceae. Pelargonium geraniums make attractive house plants. Previously Linnaeus included all the species in one genre, Geranium, but in 1789 Charles L’Héritier separated them into two genera. Gardeners sometimes refer to the members of Genus Pelargonium as "pelargoniums" in order to avoid the confusion, but the older common name "geranium" is still in regular use. Pelargonium geraniums range in height from a few inches to several feet, depending on the cultivar, age and maintenance of the plant. Many forms, types and species are available with great variation in leaf, flower and growth characteristics of geraniums.
