avens

Geum 'Borisii' should be watered regularly to keep the soil moist. During summer, water the plant deeply about once a week or when the top 1-2 inches of soil have dried out. During the winter months, water the plant less frequently and only when the top soil is dry. Geum 'Borisii' can also benefit from occasional misting or a humidity tray filled with stones and water. Make sure to avoid overwatering, as this can lead to root rot and other fungal issues.

Avens (Geum 'Borisii') needs at least 6-8 hours of bright, direct sunlight each day for healthy growth and blooming. It is best to plant the avens in a location that will receive morning sunlight, but can also be shaded from the harsh afternoon rays. This plant is tolerant of partial shade, but will bloom best when it has access to the sun for most of the day. When temperatures are high, it is important to remember to provide shade in the afternoon to protect the avens from sunburn.

Avens (Geum 'Borisii') should be pruned annually in late winter or early spring, just before new growth begins. Pruning should be done lightly to remove any dead, diseased, or broken branches or stems and will result in more compact growth. Cut back any stems that appear to be crowding out other plants. Do not remove more than 1 fourth of the plant's total branches and stems each year. This will allow the plant to maintain a strong, healthy shape. If necessary, deadheading can be done at any time, but remember to avoid over-deadheading as it can reduce flowering in the future. Pruning can also be done to promote a bushier form by cutting off any long or unruly stems. It is also beneficial to prune off any weak, spindly, or diseased branches as soon as they are noticed.
