Meaning of geranios




Felipe Lorenzo del Río

geranios
  16

From Greek geranos, crane. Plants of the family geraniaceae with two genera, geranium and pelargonium, although Linnaeus included them all in the geranium. Pelargonios are commonly used in gardening with many species and varieties. On the balconies of many houses in our towns and villages we are happy to look with its bright colors. The name refers to the shape of the fruit that resembles the beak of a crane or a stork, also a pin or a rocket, so in my land some of them also call them pins or rockets.
