Wild Geranium (Geranium maculatum)


Photographed April 24.

A relative of our garden geraniums, which are now placed in the genus Pelargonium, this is a common and always welcome woodland flower that is also a shade-garden favorite. These plants were growing in the Kane Woods (Scott Township) and Bird Park (Mount Lebanon).

For a description of the species, see the Geranium maculatum reference page.
