Flower color — Pelargonium graveolens

Pelargonium graveolens L'Hér.

Flower color is not a key breeding trait for Pelargonium graveolens, as the species is primarily valued as an essential oil and ornamental foliage plant. There are no standardized assessment methods for this trait.

In the reference 4 varieties crop Rose geranium, where this is mentioned in the description.

Pelargonium graveolens is characterized by small, inconspicuous flowers, with a palette limited to shades ranging from white to pale lilac or pink. Unlike ornamental Pelargonium groups, no quantitative scales or specialized evaluation criteria for color have been developed for this species.

Commercial cultivation of the crop focuses on vegetative biomass production; therefore, flowering is often considered a secondary trait that is not accounted for in variety trials. Specialized literature lacks regulated methodologies for classifying the flower color of this plant.
