A macro variegated geranium image. Photographed at 'Geranium World', corner of Crooked Lane and Kurmond Road in North Richmond, north-western Sydney, on Saturday, 3rd October, 2020.
'Geranium World' is the garden and nursery of Robyn Bible, who is one of Australia's leading experts, collectors and growers of geraniums and pelargoniums. She is simply amazing to talk to. And she has a brilliant collection of geraniums out at North Richmond, so it is well worth the drive from Sydney.
One of the most fascinating things she mentioned to me was that geraniums came to Australia on the First Fleet in 1788. They were in fact the very first plants to come from England for the new convict settlement in Sydney!! They were brought by Arthur Bowes Smyth, surgeon on the 'Lady Penrhyn' - First Fleet, 1788.

For some unknown reason the map "thingo" has again put the wrong place. The location is correct on the map but it is definitely North Richmond and NOT Tennyson. And it won't change it. What a stubborn map "thingo".
I love these big red flowers, quite different from the usual red Geranium (or Pelargonium), and as a bonus hoverflies and other pollinators find them just as attractive...
Enlevés des jardinières aux fenêtres, ils terminent la saison dans les vignes.
Von den Blumenkästen an den Fenstern entfernt, beenden sie die Saison in den Weinbergen.
After being removed from the window boxes, they end the season in the vineyards.
