     I've got an idea this is an ugly plant, but I like it so much it clouds my judgement

     I grew this from seed this year and I like the cut of its jib

    VictoriaS,  not the best photo, the colour is (I quote from limited searching)   geum type, soft apricot orange, cupped flower, soft foliage.

    Lost label but  recall 'hopwoodii' as part of description. It ha

    s a mound form of leaves with long stems as seen, so sprawls. Never fails to flower. Will get a better photo tomorrow. image

    Love your scab corner Victoria, some of my faves there, beautiful image

    Bizzie B love the geum, I'm never sure what the difference is between geum and pointellas but mine certainly have done lovely too this year and def will invest in more image Or can they be split? 

  • Oh brill BizzieB, thank you for taking those picsimage

    I tried a search for it with Beaus Mums mention of potentilla and the hopwoodii, google suggested potentilla hopwoodiana... Do you think that is the same plant?

    I like the way the colour fades to almost a cream it looks like and then a dark centreimage
