  Is that the water one we put by or in the pond?

  Thank you Silver surfer. So I have some geum intermedium now, hardly surprising when I've got both in the garden. Yes Lyn the geum rivale are the ones that prefer things a bit damper. Here are mine...

   My seeds never germinated, didn't we share those seeds?

  Were those Geum Rivale/water avens seeds from me Lyn?  I did send some out, but can't remember who asked me for them.  I have some almost in flower now.
