    Plant id please

    As per the title. Wondered if any of the gardener's on here could identify this plant please. The flowers resemble a pelargonium but as it's currently flowering here in East Anglia it's a bit early. The plant is about 10/12 inches tall and it's in a north facing border against a wall in sandy soil

    Maybe a Pelargonium - the petals are not the same (two upper ones are different to the lower three). It looks a bit like this one:

    Looks like Pelargonium to me. Try rubbing the leaves - they should smell of roses. A pretty good app to identify plants is Picture This (it has a free mode so no need to buy a license)
