Geranium of Madagascar

Geranium essential oil can be exported from Madagascar. Aromeya is a trusted wholesaler, distributing this oil worldwide. The name “geranium” comes from the Greek word geranos, meaning “crane,” inspired by the seed’s resemblance to the bird’s beak. While today geraniums brighten gardens, balconies, and terraces, the ancient Celts once offered them to their gods. The crane, a symbol of wisdom, was believed to draw messages from the divine in the sky with its flight. In Madagascar, geranium grows in the Central Highlands. The variety used for essential oil production is Pelargonium × asperum cv. Bourbon.
