Regal Geranium

Another flower pot on my balcony contains my favorite flower, the Geranium. These were the flowers my mother grew as I was a child. There are so many varieties I could never name them all. This is known as a Regal Geranium, grown in Canada.

Re: Regal Geranium

Nice colours Bob

The PP is quite noticeable (esp towards the lower half) was that intentional?

Re: Regal Geranium

I did a gradiant fill to remove a distracting background.

Re: Regal Geranium

I didn't notice until Azz pointed it out but it does look a bit odd in that respect - that aside though it is a lovely photo of a very beautiful flower indeed!

Re: Regal Geranium

They are beautiful Bob, do not think we have that particular variety in the UK, well suppose we must but I have never grown one. Love the delicacy of colour in this one and have to agree it is a sham about the background, may be next time something thrown over the balcony rail would be better and quicker
