Another identification please?

Hi all, great forum. I'm having trouble identifying this.

It flowers from April to October, the flowers have 5 petals and hairy stems, the flowers are approx 4cm across and the whole thing spreads sideways but only gets to a height of around 40cm

Thanks in advance.

    Hardy geranium. Not sure of variety - there are so many - but someone will take a punt I'm sure image

    Probably sanguineum

    One of the Geranium sanguineums? There's lots of them, all very similar.

    Thanks guys for the rapid and informative replies.

    I now have all the info on this thanks to https://www.rhs.org.uk/plants/details?plantid=867

    One thing I omitted to add is that this is an evergreen variety. And for those who are unfortunate to have a rabbit, this one is definately rabbit-proof image
