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.
