avens (sh)




Any of the low-growing, perennial flowering plants (approximately 50 species) of the genus Geum, in the rose family.

Most occur in the northern or southern temperate zones or in the Arctic. Several species are cultivated for their solitary or clustered white, red, orange, or yellow flowers. The plants grow no more than 2 ft (60 cm) tall. Most of the compound, deeply lobed or cut leaves arise from the base of the stem.
