Geum Prinses Juliana care
To ensure your Geum ‘Prinses Juliana’ thrives, plant it in a location that receives full sun to partial shade. It prefers well-drained soil and can adapt to a variety of soil types, including sandy or loamy soils. Regular watering is important, especially during dry spells, to keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged.
Applying a layer of mulch around the base of the plant helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Fertilise in early spring with a balanced, all-purpose fertiliser to support healthy growth and encourage abundant flowering throughout the growing season.
Pruning involves removing spent flowers to encourage continued blooming and maintain the plant’s appearance. In late winter or early spring, you can cut back the plant to remove any dead or damaged foliage and to promote fresh new growth.
