I don't think the hairs are appressed - see the stem at the base of the photo - they are sticking out. Which makes it G. solanderi

Well spotted Barb! that leaf and stem at the bottom right hand side of the photo is from a second Geranium plant which is in deed G. solanderi :-)
So I refer to the plant shown in the middle of the photograph; unfortunately the photo doesn't show the hairy details. Next time...

I'll just have to believe you that the top plant has appressed hairs, as the stems are not in focus. But seems you are now an expert in these 2 species!

I don't think a sp. level ID is possible off these images, sorry!!
