Description:

12-15” x 18” wide (seed-propagated). The prairie look-alike of Apache Plume (Fallugia), Geum’s charming, nodding pink spring flowers give rise to feathery, smoky-pink seed heads that decorate the plants in mid-summer. Spreading slowly from its roots, Prairie Smoke can be used as a small-scale groundcover. Grows easily in lean-to-average fertility garden soils. A nice companion for the various prairie grasses like Little Blue Stem (Schizachyrium) and Junegrass (Koelaria). Extremely cold hardy.

Zones 3-8

Special Notes:

Extremely cold hardy.
