herb robert


every year when herb robert appears it starts raining. I put it down to all this talk of drought by Londoners. The weather looks set for rain for about six weeks. The alternative explanation is that we talked about getting the barbecue out.
Herb Robert is a type of geranium with hairy fiery red stems and leaves that turn red in autumn. Robert from ruber (?rubra) for red, also know as stinking bob for its strong smell. Posted by Picasa
