Geum chiloense 'Blazing Sunset'
(Avens)
50 seeds $3.75
Geum 'Blazing Sunset' has fully double, scarlet-red flowers that appear in early summer. The large blooms look almost like miniature roses. The plants are more compact than Geum 'Mrs. Bradshaw'.
The scarlet-red flowers of Geum 'Blazing Sunset' look fabulous in warm color schemes. In my garden, they are planted in front of a golden-yellow rose with Diathus arenarius to provide a striking contrast.
Geum 'Blazing Sunset' is a first-year flowering perennial with a long bloom season. It's a Fleuroselect Quality Award winner. Also known as Geum quellyon var. flore plena 'Blazing Sunset' or 'Red Dragon'. Hardy in zones 4-10.
