Description
Geum ‘Orange Pumpkin’, named RHS Chelsea Plant of the Year 2023, is a stunning perennial that adds bright colour to any garden. Its semi-double flowers are a rich, glowing orange that stand out beautifully against its green, leafy foliage. This cheerful plant blooms between spring and summer, providing long-lasting colour for weeks.
Growing to about 40-50 cm tall, Orange Pumpkin is compact but eye-catching, making it perfect for the middle of borders or cottage garden beds. Its flowers are also great for cutting, so you can enjoy their vibrant colour indoors.
This Geum is easy to grow and thrives in different conditions. While it prefers well-drained soil in a sunny or lightly shaded spot, it can handle less-than-perfect soils, making it a reliable choice. It is also resistant to deer and rabbits, keeping its blooms safe from pests.
We offer high-quality Orange Pumpkin bare-root plants, ready to thrive in your garden. Plant them in fertile soil and water regularly until they are established. With minimal care, this beautiful perennial will return year after year with its bright and joyful blooms.
Add Geum ‘Orange Pumpkin’ to your garden for a lively, low-maintenance plant that brings warmth and happiness to your outdoor space!
