Dove’s Foot Cranesbill –geranium molle – grows in bare grassy areas on cultivated and waste ground. Plants normally grow to about 1 foot high and have purple-pink flowers from April to September. In wildflower gardens, Dove’s Foot Cranesbill is a useful plant to include in a flowering lawn, alongside plants such as Lawn Daisy, Selfheal, Speedwell and Buttercups.

How to grow Dove’s Foot Cranesbill Seeds
Dove’s Foot Cranesbill seeds should be sown in spring or autumn, outside, where they are to flower. Germination can be improved by lightly rubbing the seeds between 2 sheets of sandpaper. This is known as scarification and helps break down the tough outer shell of Dove’s Foot Cranesbill seeds.
