Erodium astragaloides is a small perennial in the geranium family, native to the Sierra Nevada and Sierra de Cazorla mountains of southern Spain. It suits a sunny, very well-drained rock garden or alpine bed, since it grows naturally on poor rocky-sandy dolomitic soils.
Erodium astragaloides is a species of flowering plant in the geranium family Geraniaceae. It is endemic to Sierra Nevada, southern Spain.
