Native to regions including South Africa, Réunion, Madagascar, Egypt, and Morocco, geraniums were introduced to Europe in the 17th century. Although there are approximately 700 varieties of geranium, only around 10 produce sufficient essential oil to make commercial extraction viable, as most garden varieties yield too little oil for this purpose.
