Geranium molle aka Awnless Geranium

Geranium molle, also known as Dove's-foot Crane's-bill or Dovesfoot Geranium, is an annual herbaceous plant belonging to the Geraniaceae family. It typically grows to a height of 5-30 centimeters and has hairy, grey-green, deeply lobed leaves. The plant produces tiny pink flowers from spring to autumn and has explosive seed pods. The flowers, which bloom from April to September, are pinkish-purple with jagged petals and are primarily pollinated by Hymenoptera. The fruits are glabrous with 6-9 transverse ridges. It is worth noting that this plant may be poisonous. To eliminate it, uprooting by hand pulling is an effective method for preventing its spread. Weed wrenches can also be used for larger saplings and shrubs. However, perennial weeds with deep underground stems may require alternative methods. Pulling has advantages such as minimal damage to surrounding plants, low cost, and ecological impact, although it can be labor-intensive and only suitable for small areas.
