    I think you mean 60cm. ?

    I didn't think it was that fast growing. I would be pleased if it grew out to about  a foot wide in its first year.

    I haven't got that particular one, just a bog standard yellow, and a peachy coloured one, neither grow that big, even though the yellow has been in the ground for five years.

    Geum totally tangerine is a beautiful perennial that grows a out a meter wide and looks good. It will grow quite rapidly after one season. Ensure you leave sufficient room for it to grow outwards and place it mid boarder. They combine well with blues and reds
