Geum triflorum
Prairie Smoke
Original:Geum triflorum works well in a garden setting or in a prairie or meadow-like environment. You can use it as a ground cover, put it in a rock garden, or add it to beds and borders. It has fern-like grey-green foliage, turning red, orange or purple in late autumn and lasting throughout winter. New:Geum are clump forming, long flowering pretty plants. Their colours range from white, shades of pink, yellows, orange to red. Flowers are borne on slender and branching stems, with well divided leaves. Butterflies are attracted to these plants.
