You haven't been very specific about the information your require, ie is it to do with health, growing, climate etc.
Health - A Pelargonium (geranium) from South Africa with Dark Red Flowers known as :
Umckaloabo. Helps loosen mucous but more important it strengthens the immune system against bacteria and viruses. The bodies own defence mechanisms are stimulated (increase in the bodies own interferon(against viruses)and also an increase in killer cell production to fight the baddies).

Reply:all i know is theyre kinda shaped like a star with very rounded corners and theyre fragrant when crushed. Oh, and the oil extracted from them can be used in aromatherapy to help relaxation.
Reply:You might want to mention what context you need information in? Do you need taxinomical information, do you need uses of the plant?
Reply:The geraniums are grown for the scent
of their leaves as opposed to their flowers. Native
to the Cape of Good Hope, they were first
introduced into Europe in the early 1600s.
They have glands in the leaves in which essential oils are stored.
These essential oils are used in Aromatherapy.
The leaves are compound and can show divergent palmately retuculate venation(arrangement of viens on the leaf in the form of palm, reticulate because network like arrangement of veins and veinlets)
The leaf form is highly variable and the leaf texture can be smooth, velvety or even sticky. It is the back of the leaf that releases the scent for which each geranium is known and named.
