I like geraniums. I am a woman who loves flowers.

On my balcony, there is a beautiful geranium. She has round leaves, green and green. The leaves seem to be covered with a fine layer of fluff, which feels very soft, and there is a circle of dark red patterns on the leaves. Her flowers are red and white, very beautiful.

Mom said that when she was a child, this kind of flower was planted at home. At that time, she was first called "foreign hydrangea" and "shilahong". This potted flower was given to me by my Tai Chi friend, Teacher Chen, two years ago. When I see her, I will think of him, and my gratitude will last forever.

It is said that women who love flowers are the most beautiful. I love flowers and I like to shoot them. Last night, I took another set of night close-ups! Then, I will praise geranium with sentences describing geranium!

Geranium is green all year round, and the flowers in summer are blooming and dazzling, which is a good flower that can never be broken. The flowers of geranium are like burning torches, and the bright light makes me warm all over, just like being close to an enthusiastic girl, which makes people fondle it. Maybe geranium is a burning woman. Since she came to my balcony, I kissed it passionately almost every day.

When geraniums bloom, a dozen flowers are often crowded together to form a red "small hydrangea", and some flowers are in bud and look as shy as girls.

Geranium has tenacious vitality. It is neither afraid of heat nor cold. In summer, the grass droops in the scorching sun and geraniums bloom. In winter, the autumn chrysanthemum has withered, but the geranium is still full of vitality. Geranium has added infinite fun to me!

To tell the truth, geranium is not very outstanding. What impressed me most was her enthusiasm and persistence. Besides, geranium leaves have a strange taste. As long as you touch it gently with your hand, there is a strong smell on your face. Not every man will like a woman with a little body odor. But I have a soft spot for her and never give up on her.

I like petite morning glory and elegant peony, but I prefer the beautiful geranium on my balcony.
