Tell Me More...
Compact flamboyant and highly floriferous, Geum Coral Tempest, often seen in RHS show gardens, is the jewel in any garden. Introduced in 2019, and bred by Elizabeth MacGregor in Scotland, Coral Tempest is vigorous and has a longer flowering season than most other Geum. Several huge frilly blooms in shades of orange and salmon, are held high on each wiry stem above pretty mounds of lush attractive weed-suppressing semi-evergreen foliage, for up to six months each year. A member of the Rose family, also known as Avens, the flowers are good for cutting to bring colour into your home. Geum Coral Tempest is happy growing in borders and in containers. Geums are slug, deer, and rabbit resistant so you can grow without the worry they will be eaten. Much loved by our pollinating friends, bees will come ‘a-buzzing’. Easy to grow Geum Coral Tempest prefers to be grown in moist, well-drained soil in part shade and will cope with a sunny spot. Growing to an approximate height and spread of 60cm, she has an RHS hardiness rating of H7 it is a fully hardy perennial for you to enjoy for years to come without the need for any winter protection.
