Geranium is a small shrub measuring about 3 feet in height often grown for their beautiful foliage and flowers. These flowers are often red, purple or white in color and the petals are sometime used as a flavoring in jellies, jams and salads as well as used as a flavoring in pipe tobaccos. Geranium oil is used in aromatherapy and massage therapy for many benefits that include detoxifying and relieving tension.
