Morning everyone. One of my geums has finally flowered only to be overshadowed by a gazania that has flopped over it 🙄🧡😂 #geum-coccineum-queen-of-orange #gazania-sunshine-mix

#colourpop. I’m so chuffed to see this. I managed to collect three seeds from the mother plant last year and this one was the only one to germinate. It’s only a tiny plant yet and this is the only flower but it’s a start 🧡 #avens-queen-of-orange #geum-queen-of-orange
