Hello Kay,

I grow Geum 'Mrs Bradshaw' (Zone 8).   It is a terrific splash of colour
(red) from late spring/  summer.   The only problem I had with it was mildew
last year.  I removed the infected leaves and it soon clumped out again.

If it works for you, look out for others in yellow, orange and red - they
are relatively easy to grow, and flower for weeks if deadheaded.  I also
have Geum rivale which prefers a moist soil.

Valerie, South Yorks, England.
