SPRING FLOWERS 7: HERB ROBERT

Herb Robert or Stinking Bob (smell the crushed foliage) is a cranesbill or Geranium.


Very common in woods, gardens and even on walls, the stems and leaves turn red when not in the shade.  Like all despised 'weeds', it repays a closer look for its lacy foliage and small but pretty pink flowers.
