Re: [SG] Welcome <Intro>/ Donna <Anemones>


do you have many species of Anemones? That is one of my favorite genus
among shade plants.

Thanks Gene.  I don't have many anemones.  <I sometimes joke that my garden
journal is in way better shape than my garden!>  My records show that I have
both anemone japonica and anemone pulsatilla <European Pasque> but I don't
list a variety for either.  And I think the pulsatilla may have succumbed
last winter.  I don't remember seeing it at all this year.  <I was away for
six weeks and missed some stuff out there.  Also one of the shade beds was
very very crowded.  I sometimes find little forgotten plants languishing in
deep shade under a spreading alchemilla!>

However, the anemone japonica, which I got as a "divide" from a dear friend,
was just wonderful.  This weekend I moved the surrounding alchemilla to give
it, and other things,  more room.  I'm hoping for even more delicately
bobbing blooms next season!
