This is a wonderful, old-fashioned scented powder. Rose geraniums have the delicate scent of roses; the leaves are used in baking to make lovely perfumed tea cakes. They are also perfect for scenting powders and soaps. Geraniums are one of the most common and easy-to-grow indoor/outdoor plants. You may wish to purchase a small plant or take a cutting from a friend's garden.
