In the San Francisco Bay Area, Shooting Star (Dodecatheon) is one of the first wildflowers to appear in the spring. Photographed in the Edgewood Nature Preserve near Redwood City, California.
It is still early spring and a common plant in our yard this year is
redstem filaree. It's other names are Stork's Bill, Heron Bill and
it's latin name is Erodium cicutarium. Even though the entire plant is
edible all that I've read about it being used for is abortion. Wendy
is seen here ripping it up so that we can turn it into compost.

Rocks generally lead a boring existence. Well, except maybe during earthquakes. So, rocks look forward each year to the poppy invasion. Poppies know how to party!

*Erodium cicutarium, REDSTEM FILAREE was just starting to bloom, along with SHINING PEPPERGRASS (tiny, white, closed blossoms), Panoche Hills.
These flowers were very small but I figured they were a type of Filaree - but I wasn't sure. Further investigation convinced me they are most likely Redstem Stork's Bill or Redstem Filaree.
i think this is plantago rugelii because of the purple-red base of the stem.
**anyone want to confirm or deny?** are there any other plantains in north america that have a purple-red stem?
the leaves of these plants are not normally this glossy, they were just damp.
these were found on the walkway leading into a wetland boardwalk in the "upper midwest"- en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upper_Midwest
common names are blackseed plantain, red-stemmed plantain, and rugel's plantain.
i believe the next photo from a completely different area is the same species.

Fleur de Bec-de-Grue, un géranium discret aux fleurs minuscules. Puy d'Arnac, Limousin, France.
Little plant, big fruit! Was surprised to find that this little belly flower is actually the same introduced species we have here in NJ. Seems a good bit smaller in the desert, tho.

This is a little Common Checkered-Skipper (Pyrgus communis or P. albescens) butterfly working a weedy flower of non-native Filaree (Erodium, Geraniaceae), probably the Redstem Filaree (Erodium cicutarium). You can see a forest of seedpods in the background. (Paradise, Santa Ynez River, 27 February 2015)
Very different styles of these two plants!

Day 296 of 365, Monday, March 04, 2013 ---------------------
It was a cool, windy, overcast day in Napa, but I really wanted to get a walk at lunch time. I went over to the Green Island Road unit of Napa-Sonoma Marshes Wildlife Area to look for wildflowers, and managed a few shots in spite of the wind and dull light.
This is Erodium cicutarium, also called Coastal Heron's Bill, Stork’s Bill, and redstem filaree. These flowers can be as large as ½ inch, although the ones here were smaller. This plant has a really crazy “fruit” – those spear-like “bills” you see on the left. Each “storks bill” actually is five seeds, each with the long tail tapering out to the end of the “bill”. These tails are tightly bound and make the central, elongated “bill”. At maturity, what becomes the corkscrew peels off the long “bill” and starts to curl, remaining attached to the seed. The familiar corkscrews then twist into the soil as they go through day-night cycles of wetting and drying, each time the spiral forces the sharp seed deeper into the soil.

Planted in 2006.
Peony 'Chippewa' (Murawska, 1943) is a double, lactiflora cultivar: tall at ~40”, dark black red, velvety texture, some stamens visible, midseason bloomer, long red stems, side-buds, strong grower, good cut flower, needs support. Not offered in recent nursery catalogs. Bred by A.L. Murawska (1893-1968) River Grove, Illinois who has 42 peonies listed with APS. His focus was on lactiflora cultivars that not only did well at shows, but performed well in the garden: 'Moonstone' and 'Princess Margaret' are highly rated.
Does not do well in the rain. The long stems bend and flowers hit the ground.

These are tiny flowers, but lots of them are blooming after rain last week. Hoping to get some rain again tonight to keep the flowers going. This plant is an invasive non-native in the geranium family. The entire plant is edible, with a flavor like parsley.
in bloom. in fruit.

Note from Ajilvsgi: The mature seedpod of this European native is quite showy and is the basis for most of the plant's common names, such as ALFILERILLO, FILAREE, PIN CLOVER, PIN GRASS, PINK NEEDLE, and STORKSBILL. The family name is from the Greek word geranos, meaning "crane," while the genus name is derived from the Greek word erodios, meaning "heron." These names are in reference to the unusual shape of the fruit, which resembles the head of these birds. Cultivated geraniums are from this family, with most of them coming from the South African genus Pelargonium. Many species of the geranium family (including cranesbill) are used medicinally and for the fragrant oils.
Other common names: Redstem Stork's Bill, California Filaree and Alfilaria

Erodium cicutarium, also known as common stork's-bill, redstem filaree, redstem stork's bill or pinweed, is a herbaceous annual – or in warm climates, biennial – member of the family Geraniaceae of flowering plants. It is native to Macaronesia, temperate Eurasia and north and northeast Africa,and was introduced to North America in the eighteenth century,where it has since become naturalized, particularly of the deserts and arid grasslands of the southwestern United States.
