Geum - Avens

Feed Geum : During the autumnal months we can give medicinal plants some fertilizer every 30-40 days; if we’re treating perennial plants, we should prepare them to the arrival of the winter by mixing some organic fertilizer to the soil.

continental : Let's grow the The Geum where it can enjoy as many hours as possible of direct sunlight.
These plants can be located in the garden during the whole year; they can stand minimum temperatures many degrees below zero.

alpine : Plant which needs to be exposed to direct sunrays.
Autumn climate usually isn’t very harsh, in any case these plants can even bear very prolonged freezing, therefore they can be grown in the garden during any season.

mediterranean : Locate the The in a sunny place, where it can receive direct solar rays for at least a few hours a day.
These plants can stand the cold and can also stand very harsh minimum temperatures.

continental : The Geum needs frequent and regular irrigations; we advise keeping the soil damp using 3-4 glasses of water, watering every 1-2 weeks.

alpine : Water abundantly with 2-3 glasses of water approximately every 2-3 weeks, wetting the ground deep down; let’s always wait for the soil to dry before watering again.

mediterranean : Let’s water the The Geum frequently with 4-5 glasses of water, even every 0-1 weeks, so that the soil is always damp, but not soaked with water.

Adversity Geum : During this period of the year it is unlikely to have the need to apply a parasiticide to our crop; when necessary, you can use treatments against slugs.
