Fiery Tempest Grecian Rose opens semi-double flowers in scarlet-red to deep orange on slender, wiry stems that sway above a tidy green mound. Geum 'Fiery Tempest' arrives as a live 4-inch plant, and once it starts it keeps going from spring into autumn.

The rounded, clumping shape makes it a natural at the front of a border, where the airy stems lean into their neighbors without flopping or asking for stakes. It is just as happy in a patio container, and the stems are long enough to cut for the house. Give it moist but well-drained ground and deadhead spent flowers to keep new buds coming.

Grower's note: lift and divide congested clumps every few years to keep the flowering heavy, and steer clear of soil that stays waterlogged through winter.
