It produces round, flat leaves with pronounced patterning and forms a compact, spherical caudex that remains partly subterranean in habitat. The species is notable for the subtle “zonal” variegation typical of the genus, here paired with a thickened caudex more often associated with tuberous species such as \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eP. triste\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGrowth is active through winter, followed by full dormancy in spring when the plant sheds its leaves entirely before re-emerging in fall. The caudex can be grown exposed in cultivation, though it should be shaded from intense sun while dormant to prevent damage. In spring it produces tall inflorescences, often reaching a foot in height, topped with dense clusters of pale, spidery flowers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rare Plant Catalog","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51627078811928,"sku":null,"price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0912\/1175\/9896\/files\/pelargoniumbarklyi.png?v=1769994460","url":"https:\/\/rareplantcatalog.com\/products\/pelargonium-barklyi-1","provider":"Rare Plant Catalog","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
