Geranium drakensbergensis

The Geranium drakensbergensis flower has five pink-purple to blue-purple petals with red-purple vein lines. The notch-tipped petals are white with dark veins at the base, the flower centre green in picture. The ring of chunky, blue-grey anthers surrounds a deep red-purple style-tip, not yet split into its five branches while the anthers are still functional.

This Geranium occurs in a small part of the Drakensberg around Witsieshoek to Underberg.

Only the blurred, narrow-lobed leaf part in the bottom right of the picture belongs to the Drakensberg cranesbill, the other leaves not (iNaturalist; http://pza.sanbi.org).
