I have a geum triflorum which blooms in spring - completely different flowers - these have tufts that make me think of Dr. Seuss. Check out a photo when you get a chance. I also have another spring bloomer in a deep coral/pink and last year I bought a geum that blooms all summer called Mai Tai, a beautiful apricot, soft yellow, pink combo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-55515987047108306422012-04-19T09:06:05.417-07:002012-04-19T09:06:05.417-07:00Yay for Annie's!

I guess I count myself amongst the lucky having grabbed a Clianthus puniceus during my visit!danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-73445013713758856132012-04-19T05:02:33.652-07:002012-04-19T05:02:33.652-07:00The party look fun Gerhard, you can almost feel th...The party look fun Gerhard, you can almost feel the vibe just looking at your photos. And isn't it nice when you can go back to a nursery and feel that there's always something new gem to see? :) Lovely haul and selection of succulents, and thanks for reminding me how great Aeonium nobile could look like, must get a replacement this year!Mark and Gazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09427245730390252976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1615100786320943903.post-19953368785307490512012-04-19T01:38:59.068-07:002012-04-19T01:38:59.068-07:00I'm feeling like I need to pay Annie's ano...I'm feeling like I need to pay Annie's another visit sometime soon. I can't believe they were out of Clianthus. They had about a zillion when I was there a few months ago. It must be very popular. <br /><br />I'm in love with Geums right now. I have G. magellanicum from Annie's and 'Mango Lasi' (which is adorable) and totally Tangerine which is just starting to bud up now. Your photo has me really excited to see it in bloom.<br /><br />I wish I could attend one of Annie's garden parties. It is such a drag living 4 and a half hours away.Kaveh Maguirehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415126992728047743noreply@blogger.com
