Googling on citrosa came up with:

by
incorporating tissue cultures of the grass that produces citronella

oil
into hybrid varieties of geranium to produce a cultivar that emits

a
citronella aroma."


Well done Kay. If that's the case then it needs to be kept very

dry,
surely. I cnnot imagine a geranium bonsai!


Hello Pam and Kay,
My confounded ISP misses about 30% of my newsgroup post, so I did not
get Kay's response.
Any way, thanks to Kay for sorting out the problem of the name.
The next question is how and why such a hybrid can be grown as a
bonsai.
