Geums are Jems
I discovered this flower only a couple of years ago and now cannot imagine living without it. In early spring it pops out like orange polka-dots all over my zone 5 sunny perennial border. The foliage is wide and round giving much needed coarse texture to the garden. The flowers balance above about 12-18". There are many different cultivars, so I may be creating my own sweet little geum collection soon.
