The plural of geum, a genus of colorful flowering plants with distinctive yellow or pink blooms and feathery seed heads.
From Latin 'geum,' which came from Greek 'geiōn.' The word originally referred to the plant Geum urbanum. Linnaean taxonomy preserved this ancient name for the entire genus.
Geums are tiny botanical treasures—the feathery seed heads look like tiny fireworks frozen mid-explosion, and gardeners love them because they attract pollinators while needing almost no care!
