Wild Geranium -Geranium maculatum

 Wild Geranium -Geranium maculatum
This species features blue pollen which is unusual, most pollens are yellow to orange. This is a true geranium, unlike the plants commonly planted by gardeners which are actually Pelargoniums. A common name for this species, Cranesbill, is derived from the seed pods which elongate as they mature and were said to resemble the bill of a Crane.
