Pelargonium asarifolium in the wild (Tulbagh area, Western Cape)

P. asarifolium is a geophyte with small tubers and entire, cordate, prostrate leaves. A noteworthy feature of this species is the small wine-red flowers with only two reflexed petals. The sepals are shorter than the five fertile stamens and recurved so that the stamens protrude from the flower. The staminal column is long, wine-red.
