Geranium columbinum, common name long-stalked crane's-bill[2] or longstalk cranesbill,[3] is a herbaceous annual plant in the family Geraniaceae.
The leaves are opposite, approximately pentagonal and palmate and the leaf lobes have two to three deep cuts making it similar in shape to a pigeon's foot (hence the Latin epithet columbinus).
The flowers are pink to purple, 15–20 millimetres (0.59–0.79 in) in size,[4] with five obovate-heart-shaped petals as long as the sepals.
This plant is present throughout Europe, Western Asia and Northern Africa.
Geranium columbinum prefers moderately dry, nutrient-rich calcareous soils, in woods, hedgerows and roadsides, at an altitude of 0–1,200 metres (0–3,937 ft) above sea level.
