Prairie Smoke (Geum triflorum) 3-pack of pots

Can’t be shipped.

Prairie Smoke is a favorite dry prairie flower, blooming early in the spring with red flowers that angle down like a shepherds hook when being pollinated and then raise up to let out a puff of fluffy seed tails that look like smoke. Prairie Smoke is an excellent choice for borders, rock gardens, and dry sandy soils. It blooms ridiculously early, often sending up flowers stalks when there’s still a chance of snow.

Also available in 12-packs of plugs here

Prairie Smoke is perfect for borders because of its small stature. Prairie Smoke (Geum triflorum) can also be scattered throughout a garden for early green growth while the warm-season plants are still dormant.

Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
