Geranium Oil

Geranium Oil (Food Grade, Cosmetic Grade, and Pharma Grade):
The plants of Geranium originated from South Africa, as well as Reunion, Madagascar, Egypt, and Morocco, and were introduced to European countries such as Italy, Spain, and France in the 17th century. There are about 700 different varieties of the plant, yet only 10 supply essential oil in viable quantities, as the normal garden Geranium produces far too little oil for extraction. It is a hairy perennial shrub, often used in hedgerows, and stands up to about one meter high (3 feet) with pointed leaves, serrated at the edges, and pinkish-white flowers. In early times geraniums were planted around the house to keep evil spirits at bay.
