Anemone × hybrida 'Königin Charlotte'
Japanese anemone (syn. Anemone Queen Charlotte)


A fabulous plant for bringing colour to the garden in late summer and autumn, this Japanese anemone produces masses of large, pink, cup shaped flowers on tall, wiry stems from August to October.
The leaves are pretty, too - vine-like, dark green, and semi-evergreen. These award-winning, semi-double Japanese anemones are perfect for areas of partial shade towards the back of a moist herbaceous or mixed border.
One of our recommended plants, if left undisturbed Anemone × hybrida 'Königin Charlotte' will soon spread to form majestic clumps.

How to care for Anemone × hybrida Königin Charlotte:
When planting, incorporate compost to improve drainage and fertility, spacing plants 30-45cm (12-18in) apart and watering thoroughly. Apply a layer of organic mulch to retain moisture.
Cut back the stalks after the flowers have faded. Tidy up old dead leaves in March. Apply a generous 5-7cm (2-3in) mulch of well-rotted garden compost or manure around the base of the plant in spring. Avoid moving the plant since it resents disturbance. Where necessary lift and divide congested clumps in early spring.
Where necessary, lift and divide congested clumps in early spring. This plant is quick to establish so spread may need to be checked annually.
