Geum - The National Collection

at Brickwall Cottage Garden and Nursery
Frittenden, Kent

The garden will be open in 2021 from April to June ‘by arrangement’ for small groups in aid of the NGS.


Geum 'Dawn' is a Brickwall selection, vigorous and long flowering.	Geum chiloense cultivars growing on a raised bed in sun amongst a sea of forget-me-nots.	*Geum* ‘Scarlet Tempest’ in a Spring border.

Situated in the centre of this small unspoilt village in the heart of the Kentish Weald, and tucked away down a footpath opposite the Village School, is this little cottage-style garden. It is intensively planted with a mix of trees, shrubs, hardy perennials and approximately 120 different geums.
