Geum (Geum Chiloense Lady Stratheden) – Grow these little treasures from Geum seeds! Geum Lady Stratheden is a garden perennial with semi-double bright yellow flowers. It will typically bloom in mid to late spring and last until late summer. If you want even longer lasting blooms, you may deadhead and get it to bloom again in the fall. The flowers, 1 inch wide, rise high above the basal leaves on slender stems eighteen inches to two feet and they make very good cut flowers. Very pretty and bright even with partial shade.
The basal leaves form a thick clump that grows up to eighteen inches wide. Geum likes full sun to partial shade in organically rich, moderately well-watered, sharply draining soil. If the Geum plant becomes too large, you can divide it and transplant in to new area to have even more of this wonderful flower.
Geum Chiloense is ideal for zones 7 and for zone 8 if it gets some protection at the very height of summer. Though it is apt to be much more short-lived in areas with very hot summers or very cold winters, it is not unreasonable to give it a try down to Zone 5 if you are willing to be a little risky.
Sow Geum seeds indoors 4 – 6 weeks before the last frost. Use sterile potting mix and trays. Gently press the Geum flower seeds into the surface of the soil and barely cover with soil. Keep the flower seed constantly moist until germination. At the time of transplanting, cut back the seedling to encourage a more compact growth. Plant in well-drained, fairly fertile soil. Can take up to two years to start flowering heavil
