Geranium versicolor, the pencilled geranium, pencilled cranesbill, veined cranesbill, or veiny geranium, is a species of flowering plant in the family Geraniaceae.[2][3][4] It is native to southeastern Europe, and has been introduced as a garden escapee to Ireland, Great Britain, France, the former Czechoslovakia, and the US state of Pennsylvania.[1] A semi‑evergreen perennial reaching 45 cm (18 in), it is widely available from commercial suppliers, with the Royal Horticultural Society considering it to be a good plant to attract pollinators.[2] With Geranium endressii it is a parent of the artificial garden hybrid Geranium × oxonianum.[5]
