In Cape Town’s climate, it typically flowers from spring into early summer, with the main flowering period around September and October, adding seasonal colour to the garden. The small flowers have darker markings on the upper petals, while the rounded, grey-green leaves release a lovely rose-like fragrance when touched or crushed. Its spreading growth makes it ideal for groundcover, rockeries, borders, containers, hanging baskets and coastal gardens, where it can cascade beautifully over walls and banks. Best planted in full sun in well-drained soil. It is hardy, water-wise once established and particularly well suited to sandy coastal conditions. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy You'll Love It:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eBeautiful pink to mauve flowers bring seasonal colour to the garden.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eFragrant foliage releases a delightful rose-like scent when touched.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eA hardy, water-wise choice once established.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003ePerfect for groundcover, containers, hanging baskets and coastal gardens.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eA proudly indigenous South African plant that suits Western Cape conditions.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePlant \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003ePlant in well-drained soil in full sun to semi-shade, with plenty of room for its spreading habit. Water regularly while establishing, then reduce watering once established, allowing the soil to dry slightly between watering. Avoid poorly drained or waterlogged areas, particularly during Cape Town’s wetter winter months. Trim lightly after flowering if needed to tidy the plant, control its spread or encourage fresh growth. Little feeding is usually needed once established; in containers, a light feed during active growth can be beneficial.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eDid You Know?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%;\"\u003eThe leaves of Pelargonium capitatum are naturally scented with a fragrance reminiscent of roses, which is why it is commonly known as the Rose-Scented Pelargonium. Its seeds are also fascinating, featuring a long, feather-like tail that twists and helps the seed work its way into and secure itself in the soil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\" style=\"width: 99.9413%;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 47.893%;\"\u003eBotanical Name\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.7767%;\"\u003ePelargonium Capitatum\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 47.893%;\"\u003eGrowth Expectancy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.7767%;\"\u003e30cm H x 1.5m W\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 47.893%;\"\u003ePosition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.7767%;\"\u003eSun\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 47.893%;\"\u003eWater Smart \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.7767%;\"\u003eYes \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 47.893%;\"\u003eIndigenous \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 51.7767%;\"\u003eYes \u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Cape Garden Online","offers":[{"title":"17cm","offer_id":42428889956407,"sku":"39734","price":98.95,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0262\/5434\/4247\/files\/Pelargonium_Capitatum-onlineshop-capegarden.png?v=1788435757","url":"https:\/\/www.capegardencentre.co.za\/products\/pelargonium-capitatum","provider":"Cape Garden Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
