Spring "Break" From My Gardens #7

This little gem is called "Wild Geranium". And I suppose there's a good scientific reason why, but they little resemble my woody, pungent African geraniums which are what most of us conjur up when we think of the plant.

This particular plant is the progeny of the first seedlings that I was given by the president of the Wilmore, Kentucky Flower Guild back in 1990!--and which I brought to Maryland with me in 1994. They bloom with such quite grace and spread gently thoughout my gardens. What's not to love about them?
