How to Grow
Reviews
A compact Geum with fiery orange and red blooms borne on wiry stems above neat clumps of bright green foliage. Purple buds open to reveal golden, semi-double flowers with orange and red markings, from early to late summer. An easy and reliable perennial to grow, plant Geum 'Alabama Slammer' at the front of borders for a profusion of warm colour in summer. The blooms also make a wonderful cut flower for a vase indoors. Height: 45cm (18"). Spread: 40cm (16").

1 x 3 Litre Potted Plant (KC9163)
Pot up geum plants and grow them on in bright, frost-free conditions until large enough to be transplanted outdoors. Once well grown, acclimatise them to outdoor conditions over 7 to 10 days. Geums dislike soils which are prone to waterlogging in winter. Plant them in moist, fertile, well drained soil, adding plenty of compost or well rotted manure to amend heavy clay or sandy soils. Choose a position towards the front of the border in full sun.
More Info Water Avens plants regularly until fully established. Regular deadheading will encourage more flowers to be produced throughout the summer. In spring, lift and divide overcrowded clumps of geum to maintain their vigour.
