Geraniaceae Group Presentations

Post by Apicra »

The International Geraniaceae Group have been holding a series of online presentations. Their most recent was a well illustrated talk about "Secrets of Namaqualand Pelargoniums" by Florent Grenier, covering some of the contents of his recent book. Pollination of some beautiful succulent Pelargonium geophytes in habitat is shown in detail. Small changes to flower structure and colour has lead to speciation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdmNvOOrtJw

Previous presentations can be found via Matija Strlic's YouTube page (Matt Matt) including a travelogue to Southern Namibia, an Introduction to the Fynbos Biome and how to cultivate & pollinate Pelargoniums. There is much to interest growers of succulents here.

Best wishes,
Derek Tribble

Thank you Derek, subscribed and will catch up later!

There's also a talk on Pachypodiums which might be of interest to some here as well.
