Alpine avens
Geum montanum
Alpine avens thrives in well-drained, gritty or rocky soil with consistent moisture and full sun to partial shade, making it ideal for rock gardens or alpine troughs. Water regularly during the growing season but avoid soggy conditions, especially over winter. Minimal pruning is needed — simply remove spent flower stems to encourage a tidy appearance.
