Water Avens 

Geum rivale 


This prolific flowering plant produces delicate nodding, bell shaped, pinky-red flowers continuously from May through to September.

This plant will die back to its basket for winter, and begin growing again in the spring. Trim off brown stems/leaves in the autumn to tidy it up.

The recommended depth in water is calculated as the distance between the top of the basket and the water surface. Therefore "0" would be the basket rim at the water surface.

Example plant photo taken in March 2021. This plant has only just begun growing this year. As the season progresses, plants will be sold with more growth on show.

This plant is supplied in a standard plastic plant pot. It will benefit from being repotted into a mesh basket. See our range here.
