Royal Oak is a scented Pelargonium variety that has oak tree shaped leaves with a very dark, almost black, shading through the centre of the leaf and grows in a busy habit. It produces pale mauve flowers with a purple spot and feather on the upper petals.  It has an interesting spiced-earthy scent to it's leaves. This oak leaved variety is believed to have been selected as early as 1800.
