Scented geraniums or Paneer plant in 4.5 inch pot (Mosquito-repelling)

Indirect sunlight, water twice a week

🌸 Scented Geraniums (Pelargonium graveolens)

🌿 Description:

Scented Geraniums are delightful aromatic plants cherished for their fragrant leaves and charming blooms. Unlike regular geraniums, their main attraction lies in their leaf scent, which releases a refreshing aroma when touched — ranging from rose, lemon, mint, and cinnamon to even chocolate or nutmeg depending on the variety!

The leaves are soft, velvety, and deeply lobed, adding a textured beauty to any garden. Small clusters of pink or lilac flowers bloom seasonally, adding a gentle touch of color.

🌞 Light:

Thrives best in full sunlight to partial shade. Too little light reduces fragrance and flowering.

💧 Watering:

Water moderately — allow the topsoil to dry slightly between waterings. Overwatering can cause root rot.

🌱 Soil:

Prefers well-draining, sandy or loamy soil.

🌼 Features:

• Strongly fragrant foliage

• Mosquito-repelling properties (especially lemon-scented types)

• Ideal for balconies, patios, and herb gardens

• Can be used in potpourri, essential oils, and herbal teas

✂️ Maintenance:

Pinch off faded blooms and prune occasionally to keep the plant compact and bushy.

🪴 Best For:

• Terrace gardens and balconies

• Indoor sunny windows
