ANEMONE
The Florist Anemone Burgundy has large flowers in shades of deep claret with a blue eye. Has to be seen to be believed. They make a long lasting cut flower. Height: 12" and flowers in March - June. The wood anemone, anemone nemorosa, is much smaller with stary flowers in shades of pale to dark violet-blue. They have curious slender rhizomes and are very easy to naturalise in humus rich soil under trees or shrubs.The rhizomes are planted horizontally in the autumn just below the soil surface and must not at any time be allowed to dry out as they quickly dessicate. The tiny Anemone blanda comes from Greece and thrives in full sun and will seed vigorously to form a carpet under small trees. The most common form is blue but there are white and pink cultivars.It is excellent with tulips in pots where its ferny foliage helps soften the top of the pot.Summer dormant. Height: 4" and flowers: Feb-Mar The tubers are planted in the sutumn 2" deep.
