geranium

Red potted flower

A geranium is a flowering plant popular in gardens and window boxes, known for its clusters of red, pink, or white blooms and rounded, slightly fuzzy leaves.

The plants most gardeners call geraniums are technically pelargoniums, though true geraniums (cranesbills) are a related genus.
