Pruning Geums

Geums are a plant that deserve to be better known! They come back year after year, are not fussy about where they grow, and they have a small ‘footprint’ which allows the flower stems to mingle with their neighbours.

They have a long flowering season too. To keep them looking good, go out every now and then to snip off the old flowers back to the next bud.

Once the plant has run out of buds it is time for something more drastic, as you can see!
