Pelargonium Bronze Butterfly
Another spectacular stellar is Bronze Butterfly Pelargonium, characterized by bright inflorescences of star flowers of salmon color and decorative leaves with a dark figured zone in the center of the leaf.

The plant will produce the greatest effect when planted in a flowerbed in a well-lit place, careful care and pruning.
Pelargonium Richard Hodgson

Even without the inflorescences, the bushes look attractive due to the characteristic for stellars "lapchatye", with a dark contrast zone in the middle of the leaf plate.

The leaves of this variety of pelargonium, like other stellar, are seriously different from the rounded foliage of the classic zonal varieties. But this only adds charm to the bushes until terry pink – lilac flowers appear above them. The characteristic feature of the corolla is concave petals, resembling a tiny boat.
Pelargonium Hulverstone

Pelargonium Rushmoor Golden Ruffles
As a true miniature, Pelargonium Rushmoor Golden Ruffles grows very slowly, willingly gives side shoots and blooms profusely.
The variety can rightly be attributed to a variegated, since small golden leaves of pelargonium exhibit a dark orange-brown zone in the sun. The inflorescences are delicate pink – salmon stellate flowers with elongated split petals. The color of the corolla is not uniform. To the center and along the edges of the bizarrely curved petals, the shade loses its intensity. In the center of the flower are visible bright orange stamens.

Pelargonium Vancouver Centennial
The unusual variegated pelargonium Vancouver Centennial does not look like any of the plants described. Some of the gardeners consider it the main advantage of elegant umbrellas inflorescences with scarlet tiny flowers in the form of carnations. Some people prefer bright maroon-purple leaves with a green border along the edge of the plate and along the veins.
