Geum rivale | Alba plant Perfect in a pot

Perfect in a pot

Summer flowering

The basal foliage though is only about 60cm wide and bushy - the word giant really comes from the tall airy stems of flowers as in my garden the clumps of foliage are only about 50-60cm high with the flowers that float above the foliage

Height to 90-100cm x 80cm wide

Also known as Lady's Mantle

Geum rivale | Alba plant Perfect in a potGeum rivale "Alba" has the daintiest creamy white nodding flowers over a very long period and it is oh so pretty! Geums have fabulous foliage and grow into an attractive mound and are equally as happy in the garden or a pot. They make a great ground cover or can be used to edge a path. Whilst they are known for liking a moist situation, they are equally as happy in a drier spot, but a layer of mulch to retain moisture is always appreciated. Flowering
