Geum triflorum
When to plant prairie smoke
A small prairie perennial that prefers a dry, well-drained site in full sun; flowering is reduced in shade. Grow from seed sown in spring (cold-stratify indoor starts 4 to 6 weeks), sow outdoors in fall, or divide in early spring or fall. It blooms in late spring into early summer.
Prairie Smoke is timed by season rather than your frost dates, so the planting calendar does not generate ZIP-specific dates for it. Check the cited sources below to fine-tune for your area.
