Wow, those look wonderful, Drew. Say what you want about growing foliage and flowers, there's nothing quite as satisfactory as growing something you can eat. Next best to that is growing something that smells great, jmho.

'Skeleton Rose' geranium hogging my huge urn on the patio. Smells very rosy, and also of citronella. Not sure if it's actually repelling bugs but if I can keep some cuttings going through the winter, I'm going to try planting it all along the edge of the pool next spring.

Anybody know about growing geraniums from cuttings? Do I use the older wood? Have had no luck whatsoever with tip cuttings.
