Geranium Music Because this page features more than one music clip and, also, because some viewers find background music distracting, you invited to link to the music via an image. This will open a media player, if you have one that plays mp3's. Just minimize media player window (- upper right ) to continue reading. Click on the image to hear music* from South
Africa.
( The song by Mahube is "Qhubeka" meaning "Move Forward." ) Why South African music? The plants, known by the common name, geranium, and the botanical name, Pelargonium, are widely popular in homes, gardens and landscaping. The thousands of kinds of Pelargonium, now grown throughout the world, descended from wild species indigenous to South Africa. This music is a tribute to their origin.

An Encounter in a Zen Garden
The video is a celebration of a Geranium, which appeared in Diane's Zen Garden, the flower finding its way through the Mexican weeping bamboo and the Ming asparagus.
The still shots by Diane of her previous Zen Garden, 2006. The video was made by Diane November 23, 2009 in the current Zen Garden.
The Music of Geraniums A tribute to the beauty and variety of Geraniums and Pelargoniums accompanied a selection of classical music. ( Since the current version was too large a file to upload, even to YouTube, a new version is coming very soon.)
