I used to know what it is called but I've forgotten. It's not
uncommon.
It's perennial, with habit and leaves like a species geranium. The
leaves
have one dark spot in the middle of them. The flower is
burgundy/purple,
reflexed like a potato flower with a pointy bit sticking out the front.
It
is extremely attractive to bees.
The moment someone is able to suggest what it is, I'll recognise the
name
immediately, it's on the tip of my tongue and it's driving me mad!
That almost sounds like Geranium phaeum, aka Mourning Widow.
That's the one, thanks, Kay.
