Re: Spring Perennials/ Combinations/ Anemone
Hello Susan,
Yep... pink. I would ask you about the blue you are growing. Is it a blue or a
lavender-blue? Also try the satiny white double called Vestal. Have to be careful,
though, on Anemone nemorosa named forms. I have received quite a few under
different names (mostly from England) that are the same plant.... just different
names.
A. sylvestris is another excellent anemone. If I remember correctly
"sylvestris" means something like "of the woods". I have it here in the garden and
the nursery... only couple left. Sells well since it blooms on and off all season
long dependant upon moisture and heat level. There are two more named selections
that I am aware of out there on sylvestris and I am trying to get my hands on
those ..... always on sold out..... One is a pink form and the other is a large
bloom form.
So many fine anemones to play with in the garden.....
