Geum 'Orange Pumpkin'

Marvellous flowerheads bursting with uniquely shaded petals grow in abundance from the healthy plant of this remarkable ‘Orange Pumpkin’ Geum variety.

This provides a show of double ruffled pom-poms that lasts all summer long, in an orange shade that almost makes it too hot to handle!

Uniform mounds of foliage grow with a neat habit, making this a perfect problem-solver for those wanting to fill border edges or containers, although the surprisingly airy appearance also lends it to a cottage-style garden.

When in bloom, flowers appear to dance proudly atop the foliage, on short stems. The pedigree of this flower is clear for all to see, as it was shortlisted in the ‘Plant of the Year’ competition at the 2023 RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Can’t get enough of the beauty? Do not fear as the repeat flowering nature ensures superb colour continues to appear from spring into the early days of autumn. Just make sure to cut back any older stems to encourage more flowers to form.

This hardy perennial will happily grow in moist, well-drained soil, in a sunny or partially shaded corner of the garden.

Top Tips

These perennials will die back to ground level each year, in the autumn, but will return with new growth in the spring.

Care Guide

• Plant in well-drained and fertile soil that is kept moist. If planting in clay-based or sandy soil, be sure to add plenty of compost or well-rotted manure. 
• Feed in with a general-purpose feed, avoiding the stems.
• Mulch immediately afterwards with organic matter such as well-rotted manure, leafmould or garden compost.
• Water regularly during periods of dry weather in the first few seasons after planting, especially for container plants.

• In early spring or late autumn, be sure to lift and divide large clumps.
