Geum rivale
Purple Avens, Water Avens
I'm very fond of Geum, have yet to meet one that I didn't instantly love. They are moisture lovers and I've found them growing in the boggiest of central Alberta ditches. They will also grow in dryer conditions but they do prefer the moisture.

At its prime in the Okotoks garden, this iris reached 5' tall and had over 100 blooms.

Lamprocapnos spectabilis
Bleeding Heart - Family change on this one, I've always know it as Dicentra. Now to determine pronunciation of the new name, gads!
This seed needs to be sown as soon as received. It is short lived. This seed comes from my neighbor's plant. The first time I saw this I took a double take and then a third and a fourth. It is as big as a volkswagon! Not kidding. It's massive and planted in full sun, and obviously thriving.
Seed has a short viability so will only be offered until the end of 2019. It needs to be sown immediately upon receipt.
