They are sitting on my super fast growing lemon geraniums😄

When this rain backs off, I will be trimming the super fast growing geraniums.
If you want some clippings, please let me know and I'll let you know when to pick them up.
So you will need to leave either an email address or phone number for me to let you know.

The fragrance when you rub the leaves is yummy, very lemony🍋

N.B. These are only the lemon geranium clippings, not any of my other ones this time.
