Geum 'Fire Storm' should be watered about once a week. In order for this plant to thrive, it needs about an inch of water during each watering. This should be done consistently by making sure the soil has had enough time to dry out before watering again. However, it is important not to over water Geum 'Fire Storm' as this could lead to root rot and other issues. During the warmer months, the plant may need water more frequently than just once a week. It is important to check the soil's moisture level before watering to ensure the plant is not getting too much water.

Geum 'Fire Storm' avenants should receive between 6 and 8 hours of direct sunlight daily in order to thrive. During the cooler months, when the sun is not at its strongest, they can handle up to 8 hours of sunlight. During the warmer months, when the sun is strong and the day is long, they should receive no more than 6 hours of direct sunlight. To ensure that plants are getting the right amount of sun, it is important to monitor the amount of sunlight they receive each day. Additionally, the sun should be strong enough that it would be uncomfortable for humans to be out in it without protection.

Pruning of Avens (Geum 'Fire Storm') should be done in late winter or early spring, just before the new growth begins. The pruning should be done to maintain a desired shape or size, or to remove any dead or diseased branches. Only thinning cuts should be made, meaning just a few branches are removed at a time. Avoid removing more than 25-30% of the entire plant at once. Pruning should only be necessary every 3 to 5 years, provided the plant receives proper care and maintenance.
