Product Description
A member of the buttercup family and a native of Turkey, the vibrant daisy-like flowers of the Anemone appear as if from nowhere in early spring, creating a carpet of colour that will come back for years to come.
With flowers up to 3-4cm in width, their long, pretty petals surround golden-yellow stamens which creates a beautiful contrast against the distinctive dark green toothed leaves.
Blooming in shades of violet-blue, pink or white, they are very easy to grow once planted, leave them in the ground and they will flower for many, many years in a row, increasing in size as they go.
Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, for stunning displays for many years to come.
Supplied as a collection of 75 bulbs, ready for immediate planting.
What Is Supplied
Plant Information
Top Tips
- If you want to store your bulbs over winter, then lift them before the first frost. Bulbs generally prefer to be stored dry.
- Remove loose soil, carefully pull or cut off dead and dying leaves and leave to dry overnight. Dusting with fungicide will help keep the bulbs healthy.
Care Guide
- Summer bulbs should be planted in spring, when the soil is beginning to warm up and directly after purchase.
- Your bulbs will enjoy a warm, sunny position, in fertile, free-draining soil. Heavy, clay soil can be improved by digging in 1-2 buckets of coarse sand per square metre.
- To plant, dig individual holes for each bulb or a trench if you're planting in groups. Place bulbs in the holes without pushing down hard. Make sure the growing point is pointing upwards, then cover with soil.
- Use the bulb as a guide and plant it two or three times its depth. Space them approximately two to three bulb widths apart.
- Many summer bulbs are ideal for growing in patio containers, especially the more tender species, which can then be stored over winter.
- Store the bulbs in dry paper bags or trays of almost dry sand in a frost-free place.
