Many outdoor lovers plant this geranium strictly for its mosquito-repelling powers, but it's an attractive option for summer baskets as well.

CloseWe often hear debates as to whether this scented geranium actually repels mosquitos, but this variety is worth planting if only for its fresh beautiful foliage and pink-hued flowers. Scented geraniums generally grows to 24 inches tall and almost a wide, forming a compact mound of heavily serrated, almost ruffled foliage. Drought tolerant once established, they thrive in the heat and perform best in well-draining soil. They add lovely textural interest to container planters, hanging baskets and sunny borders all summer long.
