Geum ‘Tempo Coral’

‘Tempo Coral’ is a tidy, compact geum with bright coral-red flowers on short, sturdy stems. The TEMPO series was bred for a neat habit, and it shows — no staking, no flopping, just flowers.

It tops out around 20 to 30cm tall and wide, so it works at the front of a border or in a container. Main flowering is in late spring and early summer, with reliable reblooming if you deadhead.

Plant in sun or part shade, in fertile, moist but well-drained soil. Easy-going and long-lived, a good choice for a low-maintenance border.
