Common name:Totally Tangerine Geum
Botanical name:Geum 'Totally Tangerine'
The deep green, fuzzy foliage formed a compact mound which measured about 14" tall. In full bloom, the plants measured a whopping 30" tall- the biggest Geum we've seen! The bright apricot to tangerine orange flowers make an outstanding color statement in the garden.

Maintain a two to four inch layer of mulch on the soil surface to reduce weeds, infiltrate rain water, and reduce compaction.
Change spray sprinklers to low-flow bubbler or drip systems. Shrubs and trees are ideal candidates for this type of irrigation because the water is applied directly to the root zones.
Drip and other smart irrigation delivers water directly to roots, allowing no excess water for weeds.
