Sponsor the National Plant Collections - follow Geum

Follow Geum

Sue Martin has a National Plant Collection of Geum, displayed in her garden in Kent. Maria Heffer was inspired by Sue Martin to start her own National Collection of Geum. As a florist, she loves them as cut flowers with a long vase life. 

Geum are hardy perennials that can flower from late spring into summer and sometimes as late as autumn. Flowers are usually orange, red or yellow.

Sue and Maria are looking forward to telling you more about their National Collections.

What you will receive

Your sponsorship will give you a welcome pack including a personalised certificate and an introduction to your chosen National Plant Collection and the Collection holder who is caring for it, along with their growing tips. 

You will also receive regular newsletters about Plant Heritage's conservation work, including the Journal magazine twice a year, and a copy of the National Plant Collections Directory with information about all the Collections across the UK and opportunities to visit them.

Sponsorship

Your sponsorship will help us protect the diversity of our rich garden flora, so we can:

  • Work with new collection holders to save plant groups missing from the National Plant Collection scheme.
  • Work with gardeners to establish more dispersed National Plant Collections.
  • Train more volunteers to help collection holders across the country.
  • Create a comprehensive resource about the incredible plants in our National Collections.
