Chocolate Peppermint - Mint Scented Leaf Pelargonium / Geranium - Single 6cm bio pot

Chocolate Peppermint has small flowers of pale mauve and has large tri-lobed green leaves with a distinctive peppermint scent to them. When the plant is happy the leaves will have a large chocolate brown centre in each one, when it is not so happy the leaves are smaller and greener. 

This is one of our favourite scented leaved varieties which makes a fantastic container plant just on its own.  It is known as 'Chocolate Mint' in the USA and was raised around 1960 in California by Viva Ireland (who was also the founder of the "International Geranium Society").
