Pelargonium ‘Winston Churchill’


Description:
The International Pelargonium register holds four records for plants under this name ranging from 1900 to 1988. Three are described as zonal pelargoniums in shades of magenta, with a white eye. The fourth refers to a later introduction of a regal pelargonium, cherry-orange with a white throat.
