Geum rivale | Alba plant Its seed pods also make

Its seed pods also make great dried flowers

Similar to our Leucanthemum Phyllis Smith but these flowers are bigger

this is the lovely pink variety has lush dark green shiny foliage

The basal foliage though is only about 60cm wide and bushy - the word giant really comes from the tall airy stems of flowers as in my garden the clumps of foliage are only about 50-60cm high with the flowers that float above the foliage

Geum rivale | Alba plant Its seed pods also makeGeum rivale "Alba" has the daintiest creamy white nodding flowers over a very long period and it is oh so pretty! Geums have fabulous foliage and grow into an attractive mound and are equally as happy in the garden or a pot. They make a great ground cover or can be used to edge a path. Whilst they are known for liking a moist situation, they are equally as happy in a drier spot, but a layer of mulch to retain moisture is always appreciated. Flowering
