Geranium robertianum

Herb Robert is found around the globe. Some of the population in central NY is native, but some has been introduced from Eurasian sources. There is speculation that the more weedy populations (and there are many) may be the naturalized rather than the native genotype. Flowers are usually pink, but white forms are not uncommon. Herb Robert is ubiquitous in any disturbed or edge habitat in our region.
