watering
The Geum 'Sea Breeze' plant should be watered regularly, approximately once a week during the growing season. Ensure the soil is moist but not soggy, as too much water can cause the roots to rot. During the winter months, water should be reduced, and the plant should be allowed to dry out more between waterings. If the plant appears wilted, it should be watered immediately. Remember to water at the base of the plant and not the foliage, as this can cause fungal diseases.
sunlight
Geum 'Sea Breeze' should be planted in an area that receives full sun to light shade. In ideal conditions, plants should receive 6-8 hours of sunlight a day. Soil should also be well drained, and plants should be watered deeply and regularly. It's important not to let the soil dry out completely or the plant will suffer. In colder regions, Geum 'Sea Breeze' should be planted in an area that gets mostly sun but is protected from strong winds.
pruning
Geum 'Sea Breeze' can be pruned in early spring to help promote healthy growth. Depending on the size of the plant, a light pruning of the flowers and foliage should be done. Start by removing any stems that are dead or damaged. Then, cut back any stems that are growing too tall and crossing over other branches or obstructing pathways. After that, you can thin out the dense foliage to increase air circulation and reduce the chance of disease. Doing a light pruning every year will help keep the plant from becoming overgrown and unruly.
