notes

Featuring a strong, woody structure and vigorous growth habit, the Pelargonium ‘Sweet Mimosa’ carries the saccharine scent of pungent roses. With extravagant, large balls of blooms consisting of clusters of small pink flowers with dark, magenta feathering on the upper petals, the lime-green foliage emits notes of aromatic citrus when gently touched. Each plant arrives planted in a terracotta 14cm (6in) pot.
