Geum – Mixed Varieties – 3 Litre Pot
Plant Highlights: Mixed selection of long-flowering geums • Upright stems with colourful blooms • Attractive to bees and other pollinators • Excellent for borders and cut flowers • Easy to combine with other perennials
Overview
Geum – Mixed Varieties is a selection of herbaceous perennials valued for their colourful flowers and long flowering season. The variety supplied will vary. Flower colour and form differ between varieties, but all produce blooms held on slender stems above attractive clumps of green foliage, bringing movement and colour to the garden from late spring into summer.
Their compact, clump-forming habit makes geums an excellent choice for mixed borders, cottage gardens and patio containers, where they pair beautifully with salvias, geraniums, ornamental grasses and other summer-flowering perennials.

Growing Guide
Plant in fertile, well-drained soil in full sun or partial shade. Geums appreciate consistent moisture during the growing season but should not be left in waterlogged soil.
Remove spent flower stems regularly to encourage further flowering. Cut back old foliage as fresh growth emerges in spring and divide established clumps every few years to maintain vigour.
Why We Love It
Geums provide reliable colour over many weeks and fit naturally into a wide range of planting styles. Their airy flower stems add movement without overwhelming neighbouring plants, making them a versatile addition to perennial borders.
Wildlife
The nectar-rich flowers attract bees and other pollinating insects, helping to support garden biodiversity throughout the flowering season.
Good to Know
This is a mixed selection. The variety supplied will vary, and flower colour, flower form, foliage characteristics and mature size will differ between individual plants. Only features common to all geums are described.
