Produces 5 times the number of flowers as a typical Geum

Mega-producer Totally Tangerine Avens, Geum, brings masses of spicy flowers in hues of bright apricot, tangerine, and orange. You’ll be so impressed by the incredible number of blossoms this large Geum produces over several months. Since it is sterile, it keeps blooming from late spring through summer heat. Industry insiders claim this plant produces 5 times the number of flowers as a typical Geum.

The deep green, fuzzy foliage forms a compact mound about 14” tall. In full bloom, the plants measured a whopping 30” tall—the biggest Geum know of! The carnival of bright flowers makes an outstanding color statement in the garden. The renowned perennial expert Leonard Perry of the University of Vermont says: “One of the top performers of all my new perennials, very robust habit.  I’m very impressed!”. We think you will be too!

Geum is a fast grower that is rarely bothered by pests or diseases. It begins blooming in April, and flowering continues for months into summer. Pollinators adore it, but deer leave it alone. You’ll want to grow this beauty in a spot or container where you can view its gorgeous flowers up close. It is lovely in the garden, in mixed containers, or on its own. It is an ideal plant for cottage gardens, perennial beds, or as a pretty edging plant.

Growing instructions: the plant prefers a sunny spot. Plant in soil that has been amended with compost or other organic matter. Keep well watered, especially when the plant is setting up buds and blooming, and during dry spells.
