Geranium renardii 'Phillipe Vapelle'

Mildly toxic to dogs

Mildly. The ASPCA lists geranium renardii 'phillipe vapelle' as mildly toxic to dogs — a chewing dog typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List.

Cranesbills are generally considered non-toxic, but because this cultivar is not specifically ASPCA-listed, treat with caution and verify with a vet rather than assuming pet-safe.
