Geum JAZZY™ Tempo Yellow

Common Name:
Avens JAZZY™ ‘Tempo Yellow’

Description:
Geum JAZZY™ ‘Tempo Yellow’ is a compact, clump-forming perennial prized for its cheerful, semi-double to double yellow flowers held on slender stems above fresh green, textured foliage. The bright blooms create a lively display in garden borders, cottage gardens, rockeries and decorative pots, while their open form provides an attractive source of nectar for bees and other pollinating insects. In Melbourne, ‘Tempo Yellow’ performs best in full sun to part shade and prefers fertile, well-drained soil with consistent moisture during active growth. Good drainage is particularly important during cool, wet periods. Removing spent flowers encourages further blooms and keeps the plant looking tidy, while old foliage can be cut back as required to promote fresh growth. Flowering is strongest through spring and can continue into summer, making this colourful Geum an excellent choice for adding a bright, informal accent to perennial plantings.
