Cyclamen hederifolium Cyclamen hederifolium
(Baby cyclamen)
(2 user reviews)
Hardiness Zones: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

A fine plant for fall, this cyclamen's frequently scented, mottled flowers emerge directly from the soil, followed by a carpet of patterned, mid- to dark green leaves attractively variegated with patterns in white or silver. It often blooms for up to two months. Each small pink or white flower has swept-back petals resembling a dove in flight, marked with maroon at the mouth. It makes a good foliage display all winter after the flowers have faded.

Pelargonium tomentosum Pelargonium tomentosum
(Mint-scented geranium, Peppermint geranium)
(1 user review)
Hardiness Zones: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

The velvety leaves of this choice species are pale green with long, silky hairs. The angora-like feel of the foliage is matched by its heavenly aroma of fresh mint. It bears clusters of dainty white blossoms in spring, but remains an exceptional foliage plant throughout the year.
