Avens is a pretty perennial whose wild forms can be found on every continent except Australia. There are several species being crossbred for more attractive flower colours, extended blooming time, or better hardiness. All varieties we sell are reliable and hardy in C.E. climate without any help or protection.
Description of the plant:
TEMPO™ ROSE is a fantastic addition to the avens family from the TEMPO™ series bred by Harini Korlipara from Terra Nova Nurseries in Oregon, USA. From about mid May it produces masses of deep maroon stems topped with small flowers which open to rich pink and slowly fade to pale pink as they age. Blooming lasts 3-4 weeks and after a short pause the plants re-bloom offering a few flowers throughout summer.Basal leaves are rounded, shallowly toothed, medium green, and make a nice groundcover in mass plantings. Modern avens hybrids and varieties are prolific bloomers and are suited for both city landscapes as well as country gardens. US patent No. PP31209 was granted in 2019.
Avens is not picky about soil type. It does best in fertile, medium moist but well-drained soil in full sun. A little extra feeding will bring lush foliage but is not necessary for flower production – avens will always flower if grown in full sun. Hardy to abt. -29 °C (USDA zone 5).
