Anemone Collection
M8030
Description
Our new ‘Anemone Collection’ is a choice selection of exceptional anemones from the ‘De Caen’ group, with long stems, large, cup-shaped blooms, and intense colour. This mix contain 10 corms of each of the following: ‘De Caen Red’ – like poppies, with scarlet petals and raven black centres; ‘De Caen White’, with elegant, pearlescent blooms, and ‘De Caen Mauve’ with satiny purple petals.
These little gems are ideal for filling patio planters, window boxes, and the front of borders, offering a pop of colour in the smallest of spaces. Flowering from May to June, anemones are invaluable for bridging the gap between spring bulbs and summer bedding.
Care Guide
To grow Anemones successfully, select a partly shaded area with well-drained, humus-rich soil.
Pre-soak corms overnight in tepid water, planting 5-8cm deep and 15cm apart the following day.
Keep soil consistently moist without waterlogging and feed with dilute liquid seaweed every week during flower production.
Graceful stems of open-faced blooms rise to heights of 15-30cm between March and June. The delicate flowers are wonderful for cutting and arranging.
Can be grown undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel for earlier flowers and may also be grown in containers or crates.
