Your garden will be all set for a great start to summer when you plant a few Geum 'Mai Tai'. Flowering from late spring to mid-summer in a fruity-looking cocktail blend of peach, pink and apricot tones, it’s right on cue to get the party started. There are two particularly great things about Geums. Firstly, they flower at a time when the garden often has a gap between spring and summer, which is useful. Secondly, they’re fully hardy perennials so you can expect a repeat show every year!

Geum—member of the Rosaceae or rose family—are known for their unfussy nature, which makes them a total delight to have in the garden. They’re clump-forming perennials, and each year they fill out a little bit more and produce a better profusion of flowers each time. True, they need a bit of time and patience, but with flowers this gorgeous, Geum 'Mai Tai' (Cocktails Series) is totally worth it!
