Geranium rotundifolium L.
Small-flowered species distinct from others by its circular to kidney-shaped leaves, flowers pale pink, 7-9 mm across, carpels not wrinkled.
Photographed from Kashmir Wow. The name appears to be apt. Wonderful series of posts of Geraniums.
Wild herb from Jwalamukhi area of Himachal Most probably Geranium lucidum .. These are not good photos. One is not in focus. Neither is close-up nor shows the flowers. However, the foliage does not fit Geranium lucidum. Hydrocotyle for ID :: MAR2018 MK004: 6 posts by 3 authors. Attachments (5)
Please help me in identifying this small soft herb. The habit reminds me of a Hydrocotyle sp. Could this be H.sibthorpioides?
Habit: creeper
Habitat: shady moist places
Alt.: 350 m asl
Date: 24.01.2018
Place: Jammu (outskirts, rural), J & K
To me it looks close to Hydrocotyle tripartia
Without flowers Geranium rotundifolium cannot be ruled out..
Thanks, …,
Images are of small pixel size and it is very difficult to see details required for proper id.
However, to me also appear close to images at Geranium rotundifolium
Hydrocotyle tripartita R. Br. ex A. Rich. or Hydrocotyle tripartita Hook. fil. does not have distribution in India as per these links. Apologies for poor quality pictures. I am attaching high resolution images of the same herewith.
