Description
Genus Geranium
Annual
or perennial
herbs. Leaves usually alternate, stipulate
, variously divided
. Peduncles (1-) 2-flowered. Flowers often showy, regular, usually 5-merous. Petals alternating with 5 nectiferous glands
. Stamens (5-) 10, staminodes occasional. Carpels usually 5, adnate
, separating septifragally from the central axis at maturity. Ovary 5-lobed. Fruit schizocarpic, of 5 mericarps which remain attached to an elastically coiling
stylar
axis upwards; mericarps without apical pits.
A genus of c.
400 species, mainly distributed in the temperate
zone of N. Hemisphere, but also in the tropics. Represented in Pakistan by 22 species. The large flowered perennials are difficult to key
out satisfactorily unless there is ample information on the nature of the underground parts, flower colour, shape
and size of the leaves and the fruits. In the key that follows, I have used the following terminology: segments for primary division
of leaves; lobes
for secondary division
. The sepal length
excludes the awn
. The beak
length (in fruit) excludes the styles.[1]

Petals of Chinese specimens of Geranium robertianum are unusually short. In other areas, petals vary from 0.9 to 1.4 cm. Geranium purpureum Villars, which is not recorded from China, is quite similar to G. robertianum and has short petals. However, it can be separated by its yellow anthers and by its mericarps closely ribbed
. Geranium purpureum is widespread in N Africa, Europe, and W Asia as far as Iran. [source]
