MOSQUITO PLANTS
There are two types of plants, that are called mosquito plants. One is a member of the geranium family, that was constructed genetically, in order to integrate the qualities of citronella. Citronella wächst only in tropical places, but it is a well known repellant for mosquitoes. This plant was created, about which repellant-Eigenschaften of citronella comes off as one,, to bring ärtetere plant. It will build an extension there where each geranium will thrive. Many have his/its Nützlichkeit as a mosquito repellant questions, but it is sufficiently attractive, about planting for it to rechtfertigen\'s decorative value.
