Product Description
Queen of Orange is a herbaceous perennial with dark green fuzzy pinnate leaves and erect stems that support single flowers. The rich orange blooms have yellow anthers and are perfect for attracting bees and butterflies into the garden. These hardy perennial plants will flower all summer from June right through to September. We recommend cutting back the foliage after flowering to encourage new growth. These beautiful flowers are ideal for rockeries or the front of garden borders in sunny or partially shaded areas. They will also make a lovely cut-flower display to be enjoyed indoors. Supplied as UK-grown 5cm module plants.

Growing at a glance…
Geums can be planted in spring and autumn. Position them somewhere sunny, although perhaps out of direct sunlight as they can get scorched from harsh rays. To plant a geum module, dig a hole in the border that’s big enough to house the entire root. Do this until the top of the soil from the module is just below the top of the pot. Fill around the modules with soil and firm them down gently. Water well.
