Geum Liv
Bright orange and red Geums. Very summery despite sounding like more of an autumnal palette. And the analogous colours somehow softens and enriches both. Easy to grown and flower from May right through the summer.

More about the plants
Geum
Masses of soft flowers carried above a rosette of green foliage
Prolific, hardy and reliable.
Most grow to around 50cm, so they are perfect for pots and front of borders.
The foliage of Geums is semi-evergreen (They have a short period of dormancy but appear green throughout the year).
Stipa Tenuissima
Grasses are an essential part of naturalistic planting.
They offer a visually quiet and restful structure that softens and pulls together more showy plants.
Stipa Tenuissima (aka Mexican Feather grass and Pony tails) is a shorter, more easily placed grass, that brings a year-round feathery swoosh to planting schemes.
