Geum 'El Wano'

Geums are familiar favourites in herbaceous borders, although they also work well in larger rock gardens, developing into mounds of neat, dense foliage. They need a little space for their flowers, which tend to be produced on long, spreading stems.

Geum 'El Wano' bears large double gold-apricot flowers with dramatic stamens. It thrives in sun and shade. For best results, grow Geum 'El Wano' in a cooler part of the garden, in well-drained soil. Divide plants every two to three years.
