Geums are a valued and popular plants, in particular with garden designers, and no doubt you will see Geums in many show gardens. The large, petticoat flowers are displayed on robust and flexible wiry stems, with the lush rich foliage bringing additional, ground covering benefit from March to November on this appealing plant. Geum Firestarter has flame red, semi-double and ruffled flowers which gather around a yellow centre like a flouncy, frilly skirt. Geum Firestarter will not only grace your garden in pots and open ground, it will look tremendous in your floral arrangements should you decide to cut some to pop in a vase. It even has a subtle, sweet scent to add further interest. Flowers emerge in April and continue in their full glory through to September time - giving six months plus of fantastic scarlet colour. Prized by pollinators and happily adapting to either full sun or partial shade, plant in moist, well-drained soil of any aspect. A fully hardy, herbaceous perennial which reaches a height of 50cm and spreads to 30cm.
