Geranium thunbergii is widespread throughout the country
from south to north in fields, mountainsides, and even roadsides; it
has been well-known as a medicinal herb since ancient times. A white
variety exists, and it is not rare. The leaves of this species are 'palmately'
three-cleft or five-cleft, which may be one of the differences from
the other geranium species. Bloom time: July-October. |
