Re: [SG] Anemone was: Variegated Solomon's Seal


Clyde,

Are Anemone St. Brigid hardy for you?  I used to try this double form of
Anemone De Caen, but could never get them to come back the second year.
Have since read they are hardy only in USDA z. 8 and warmer - 7 with lots
of mulch and luck.  If you do get them to winter over, what is your secret?
