What makes a Geranium a Geranium?

Would you think this pretty, pansy-like flower is a geranium? It certainly is. I love the coloration, the markings, and especially the flirty stamens in the center. I've had this plant for about 4 years. It lives in the garage during the winter months, and then comes out to rejuvenate when spring comes. The leaves are fragrant. This is another geranium. The blossoms may make an appearance as white, pink, or the scarlet color you see below. This plant also winters in the garage and comes out to delight in the spring.
