Keep the mosquitoes away and enjoy a refreshing, lemony scent with Citronella (Pelargonium graveolens), the ultimate "functional plant" for your outdoor living spaces. Known as the Mosquito Plant, this hardy perennial is a top seller for anyone looking to buy pest-repellent plants in Kenya. Its deeply lobed, lace-like foliage is packed with essential oils that release a crisp citrus fragrance whenever the leaves are brushed or crushed.
Why Citronella is a must-have for Kenyan homes:
Natural Insect Repellent: A favorite for Nairobi patios and balconies, it helps create a natural barrier against mosquitoes, making your evening sundowners much more comfortable.
Highly Fragrant: Adds a clean, uplifting lemon scent to your garden that is especially potent in the warm Kenyan sun.
Drought-Tolerant & Hardy: Like most scented geraniums, Citronella is incredibly resilient and thrives in the varied Nairobi climate with very little fuss.
Beautiful Texture: Beyond its utility, the velvety, ruffled leaves provide a unique structural element to mixed potted plant arrangements in Kenya.
Care Essentials:
Citronella loves bright, direct sunlight—the more sun it gets, the stronger its scent and oil production. As a top pick for online plant delivery in Kenya, we recommend planting it in well-draining soil and watering only when the top inch of soil feels dry. Prune regularly to keep it bushy and to encourage fresh, fragrant growth.
