Both are grandchildren of a totally white geranium, children of a slightly red tinted one. Sprouted via seeds from their parents fruits.

I think they are gorgeous!

    Beautiful! Different soil composition can cause colors to vary. Or maybe you just got weird ones.

      Maybe cross pollination? Many people have geraniums in the area and the bees likely carry the pollen everywhere

      I also heard as a child that if a red geranium petal falls on the soil of a white geranium it can tint their flowers. But that sounds like a urban legend to me!
