Re: Anemone Sylvestris


Hello Louise,
    Anemone sylvestris is an easy one to grow. Makes a lovely ground-cover for the
garden in open shade, decent soil and light mulch. don't give it too rich a soil
or one very tight in texture.... plant will respond accordingly and you will have
a lot of the anemone.
    Although I have not been able to get my hands on them wholesale or retail from
catalogs, there are several forms of this one out there to collect. A pink
blooming form. A large blooming white, and a fully double form. My guess is more
that I am not aware of. Think I have some seeds here in a bag someplace.
    There is certainly no shortage of late winter, early spring blooming
perennials. What do you have in mind besides the Anemone? Will Primula be in the
plans? Pulmonaria? Hellebore?
