        THE GOOD LORD HAS ABUNDANTLY PLANTED DISSECTUM IN THE YARD.  LOOKED AND LOOKED FOR THE ANSWER…DOES IT HAVE THE SAME MEDICINAL QUALITIES AS THE MACULATUM?

        THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU ALL,

        JANE

          Geranium dissectum may contain some tannins and mildly astringent compounds, there is no strong herbal tradition or scientific support for its use.

          It is sometimes listed as having mild astringent actions, but this is likely assumed based on its genus rather than tested evidence.

          It’s mostly considered a weed or wild edible, not a primary medicinal plant. I’d stick with G. maculatum.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
