Oh, I love geraniums! Some people don't like the smell of the plants, but I do. My grandmother had them, and I grew her cuttings too, in California. Unfortunately, my weather in Oregon is just a bit too cold to grow them. Oh, they sell them as annuals, but where's the fun in that? I like them to get big! I didn't know they were out of fashion. Sad.
I always remember my grandma's garden too. And every spring, I plant geraniums because they are so hardy and seem to withstand the hotter summers we are having now.
I didn't know geraniums were no longer fashionable. I see them a lot here in AZ. I love the bright colors. :) Your picture and poem are lovely.
