Velvet-like, deep plum coloured petals form open bowl-shaped flowers, each with a rich purple eye, above the clumps of finely divided foliage in spring. A magnificent variety that provides superb groundcover at the front of the border. This anemone will also put on a great seasonal display in a patio pot or windowbox.
