Found in back yard in upstate NY. Flower is about the size of a quarter. There were about 5 of them all close together. |

Hi t1010j,  Your lovely plant looks like the native Herb Robert (Geranium robertianum) More photos on this page: http://newyork.plantatlas.usf.... http://newyork.plantatlas.usf.... ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| At first I thought it looked like Herb Robert but the plant needing an ID looks to have 6 petals and Herb Robert only has 5. Maybe some other type of wild geranium? Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

Hmm, I didn't even notice that. My first thought was Geranium maculatum but that didn't look right; I've looked through the database at bunches of geraniums but haven't yet found any that seem to match.  I'm sure someone will recognize it soon and will be able to offer an ID. ~ I'm an old gal who still loves playing in the dirt! ~ Playing in the dirt is my therapy ... and I'm in therapy a lot! |

| The foliage looks right for herb Robert. If the foliage stinks, that's what it is. He who plants a garden plants happiness. |

| t1010j, did you by any chance take more than one photo of this plant? Sunset Zone 28, AHS Heat Zone 9, USDA zone 8b~"Leaf of Faith" |

I think your ID is correct. I didn't post this other picture because it's blurry but you can see that the other flowers have only 5 petals. Thanks! |
