safe plants for cats

Hello,

I notice here that you say geraniums are safe for cats

Cat-Friendly Garden Ideas: Tips For Creating A Cat-Friendly Garden ^[1]

However, on other websites it says that they are toxic.

I am keen to keep my garden cat friendly, so would appreciate confirmation on what is the correct information.

Many thanks

Sue

The article you mention, list Scented Geranium as non toxic to cats.
Scented Geranium are actually Pelergoniums and are not related to Geraniums.

Geraniums are listed as toxic to cats, but not Pelergoniums/Scented Geraniums.
