Beautiful and full of plants I long for. Give it a look at Timber Press.

I wish somebody could tell me how to grow the blue anemone which is grown
from a small tuber sold in the fall bulb catalogs. If I plant them in early
spring in containers they always collapse before blooming. I don't expect
them to return after a winter here but just one spring would be nice. A.
blanda would be the small one, this might be A. coronaria or maybe they have
new names now.
We went to a bulb show today and these blue Anemones are so beautiful. The
ones I saw were forced but there must be some way to grow them in the garden
or in a container.
