Geum chiloense 'Mrs J. Bradshaw' Red Avens 'Mrs Bradshaw'

Warm scarlet-red semi-double ruffled flowers with prominent golden stamen centres, held on slender wiry stems that make the blooms appear to float in mid-air — Geum 'Mrs Bradshaw' is the RHS Award of Garden Merit cottage garden perennial that has been grown, divided and shared between English gardens for well over a century, and remains one of the most reliable and characterful red perennials available from seed.

Not a harsh fire-engine red, but the slightly orange-toned, strawberry-touched red of a good cottage garden — the kind of red that feels entirely natural alongside pinks, purples, blues, and the soft faded tones of an established mixed border. Each bloom centres on a cluster of prominent golden stamens that provide vivid contrast against the red petals, making the flower look particularly fresh and clean even in the height of a hot summer. The stems are wiry and slender (45–60cm), holding the flowers well above an attractive mound of soft scalloped semi-evergreen foliage. Hardy perennial (H7), surviving below -20°C. Holds the RHS Award of Garden Merit. Exceptionally clay-tolerant — Mrs Bradshaw is one of the few ornamental perennials that actually performs well in heavy clay soils. Flowering season May to September with consistent deadheading.

A note on growing

Like its yellow sister Lady Stratheden, Mrs Bradshaw needs light and consistent warmth (18–20°C) to germinate. Surface-sow indoors February–April. Cover with only the finest dusting of vermiculite. Germination is variable (typically 14–28 days, occasionally longer) — late germinators within a single sowing are common and often produce excellent plants. Resist the impulse to discard ungerminated trays.

Plant out in sun or partial shade in clay-tolerant, moist but not waterlogged soil. Mrs Bradshaw genuinely thrives in heavy clay soils where many decorative perennials fail. Deadhead every spent flower stem back to the basal foliage consistently throughout the season — this is the difference between a 6-week flowering season and 4 months of continuous scarlet. Cut entire stems back to base; do not leave stubs. Divide clumps every 2–3 years in autumn for renewed vigour. Bonus: don't deadhead the final flush of late stems — the fuzzy burr-like seed heads turn a deep reddish-brown and look stunning in textural dried arrangements.

Where it shines

In cottage borders for warm, characterful, long-season scarlet that bridges spring and summer — Mrs Bradshaw starts blooming as the tulips finish and continues well into September. As a "floating colour" — the slender wiry stems make the flowers appear to dance in mid-air, adding lightness amongst more rigid border perennials. In clay-tolerant plantings where few other decorative perennials thrive. With the late-season seed heads providing structural autumn interest.

Plant alongside

The quintessential cottage spring contrast: pair Mrs Bradshaw with Forget-me-not 'Blue' — Geum begins flowering as the Forget-me-nots reach their late-spring peak, the intense scarlet rising from a sea of soft baby-blue creating one of the most quintessentially English cottage garden looks. For high-contrast florist quality, combine with Bupleurum 'Griffithii' — the zesty lime-green flowers act as the perfect foil, making the scarlet absolutely pop. For matching Geum tradition, pair with Geum 'Lady Stratheden' (yellow sister) for the classic warm complementary pairing that English cottage gardens have grown together for generations.

The best hand soap bars PERIOD.
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 3), Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 3)
Wow! I am actually VERYYYY impressed with this soap. Believe me when I tell you I have tried everything from $5 for 6 bars soap to $50 for 1 bar soap (not an exaggeration). And I can wholeheartedly say this is the absolute best bang for your buck when it comes hand washing/soap. To me these little bars are absolutely awesome for hand washing. I use the scrubby bar when I have a ton of grease after eating say pizza or something & and then I use the moisturizing bars for all other hand washing. These bars blow away some of the best artisan expensive bars I’ve used like Caldwell Massey or Gentleman’s Nod or Ariana & Evans. These are now go to hand soap bars and I will use nothing else because these are so good. I don’t use liquid soap because I feel like I can never get it off and it feels like it’s always still stuck to my skin even after rinsing and rinsing and rinsing so I like using bar soap and I like bar soap that really dry out your skin for your hands and these little bars do it extremely well without over drying your skin. I do wish the scent was a bit more powerful because all 3 bars have a nice scent each. Tried the sandalwood bar in the shower and like I suspected go with the 6oz bars for the shower because these little 3.5oz guys just go too quickly for all over body use. So for the shower, I’ll use the 5.3/6oz bars and my hands these little guys will now be my go to!

Great Quality Soap with a Clean, Masculine Scent
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 3), Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 3)
I recently got the Rinse & Robust Men’s Bar Soap Set, and the bar I’m holding in the picture is the Leather scent, which my husband has been trying out first. It has a rich, masculine fragrance that smells clean without being too strong. The soap lathers nicely, rinses off easily, and leaves his skin feeling soft instead of dry. The set also includes Sandalwood and Teakwood, which both smell amazing in the box. I can already tell they’ll be just as refreshing. Each bar feels well-made and lasts longer than most store-bought soaps we’ve tried. The packaging looks great too, so it would make a thoughtful gift set. So far, the Leather scent has been a hit. It’s a classic, smooth, and perfect for everyday use.

My honest thoughts on this soap.
Size: 3.5 Ounce (Pack of 3)
I think this soap is very good. The texture is nice and the scent it omits is amazing. It is a little smaller than they are letting on and it is quite expensive. But if you like quality over quantity then this is for you.
