✂️ Care
Regularly pinch back stems to promote compact and bushy growth. Remove spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming.
Place in a bright and well-ventilated area. In winter, reduce watering. This scented geranium prefers mild temperatures and tolerates indoor conditions well.
Low-maintenance, it requires minimal care once established. Its finely cut foliage releases a delicate nutmeg scent when touched.
