Lemon geranium. Is it difficult to cultivate?
Lemon geranium, or geranium, is a plant that many of us can remember from our grandmothers’ apartments. In the past, it was very popular and willingly bred at home. A characteristic feature was the lemon scent that was released when the spreading leaves moved. This beautiful ornamental plant is highly valued for its healing properties. Angina has antibacterial and antiviral properties, and its common name did not come without a reason. Angina infusions help with respiratory tract infections, and fresh leaves treat skin diseases, soothe rheumatic pains and reduce swelling. Lemon geranium is quite easy to grow, but does not like excessive watering. Before pouring water into the pot, make sure that the soil is sufficiently dry. They require sunny positions, because in the shade they stop emitting their scent.

The infusion is helpful in sore throats, inflammations of the mouth and toothaches. From geranium, you can also prepare a pulp from the leaves, which we make in a mortar and then apply to sore spots. Geranium can also be inhaled – as a pulp or infusion, which will then have a healing effect on our respiratory system.
