Botanic information
Leaf: The broadly cordate basal leaves have 5-7 lobed each with 3 lobes or deeply toothed and they petiole up to 150 mm (6in) long. The texture is leathery and the apex of the lobes is acute. The stems have up to 5-pairs of smaller leaves and under cold conditions the plant is herbaceous.

Flower: The cyathiform flowers have 5-sepals and 5-pale pink petals with a network of the darker veins and a black centre and stamens. There are 1-4 flowers arranged in an axillary cyme on a short peduncle and appear from late spring to early summer.

Fruit: The small dry capsule is a schizocarp containing multiple carpelsand is indehiscent. The fruit is accompanied by the persistent sepals and commonly with the coiled styles.
