Erodium
Common Name: Storksbill or Heronsbill.
Relatives of the hardy Geraniums but on the whole liking drier, sunnier
positions than most of those. Usually forming low mounds of feathery
foliage and with pink to white flowers with a characteristic darker
marking on two of the petals.
Propagate by division. |
Erodium
petraeum. Low
mounds of finely divided leaves and masses of pink veined flowers
throughout the Summer and Autumn. Best in a well drained soil but pretty
accommodating for us. The distinctive darker blotch on the top two petals
only shows up well when grown in full sun. Originates from Southern France
and Northern Spain.
