Two Flowers are traditionally associated with Mackinac Island’s world famous Grand Hotel. In the Spring, lush, fragrant lilacs bring thousands of visitors to the island. But in the Summer time, for over 100 years, glorious tangerine-red geraniums have been a trademark of this must visit hotel. Found woven into carpets, chair seats, table tops, cocktail napkins, and, of course, planted in the flower boxes across the world famous front porch, these Geraniums have become an integral part of the summer memories of visitors which include families from far and wide as well as movie production companies featuring celebrities including the likes of Mark Twain, Jimmy Durante, Esther Williams, Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour, Christopher Plummer and more.
