Pelargonium cordatum, L'Her. Figs. 2842, 2843. Shrubby and erect, villous or nearly glabrous: lvs. long-stalked, cordate-acute, denticulate and sometimes obscurely lobed; stipules with broad base but subulate, deciduous: peduncles usually branched, the pedicels and calyx soft-hairy; fls. purplish, the petals twice as long as the sepals, the two larger nearly or quite 1 in. long, cuneate-obovate, the apex rounded and entire. B.M. 165 (as P.cordifolium). G.M. 54:627.—Distinguished from P. cucullatum by its flat cordate acute lvs. It is a handsome plant in bloom. The plant in cult, as P. cordatum (Fig. 2843), has lvs. more truncate at the base than the descriptions and old pictures call for, although on some shoots the lvs. may be typically cordate. In the wild, the plant runs into several forms, distinguished largely by pubescence. ^CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
