Geum Mrs J. Bradshaw

• Position: full sun or partial shade
• Soil: fertile, well drained soil
• Rate of growth: fast

• Hardiness: fully hardy
  
  A popular variety, with a long flowering season and semi-double, vivid scarlet flowers that appear from June to August among rosettes of puckered, scalloped fresh green leaves. This easy-to-grow geum looks best among other 'hot' coloured flowers towards the front of a sunny border.
  

• Garden care: To prolong flowering, deadhead regularly. Lift and divide large clumps in early spring or late autumn.
