Red Dragon Avens is a vibrant perennial producing scarlet red to orange double blooms on strong upright stems in full to part sun and zones 5-9. Well-drained soil and moderate moisture support robust flowering from late spring through early summer. The bold, warm-toned flowers create striking focal points in mixed borders and cottage gardens. Deadheading prolongs the bloom period and maintains a tidy appearance throughout the growing season.
