Synonym(s) Erodium pelargonifolium Common name heronsbill Family geraniaceae Life cycle perennial (Z7-9) Flowers pink Size 6-12" Light sun-part shade From seed germinate at room temperature detailed seed-starting info below Grown from seed labeled Erodium pelargoniflorum, I think its true identity is E. trifolium (a.k.a. E. pelargonifolium). It bloomed readily in its first season from seed, and indeed its leaves resemble those of pelargoniums. Not so sure it will turn out hardy in our garden. Supposedly suitable for rock gardens.

In our garden, this plant grows in the following areas: bogside border, orchard nursery area
