garden anemone bulbs

Product Image
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.

Anemone coronaria 'Bordeaux' is a magnificent variety that provides superb groundcover at the front of the border. It will also put on a great seasonal display in a patio pot or windowbox.

How to care for Anemone coronaria (De Caen Group) Bordeaux:

Soak the tubers overnight in cool water and plant them in naturalistic drifts (it doesn't matter which way up) 5cm deep and 15cm apart from September to November, or (for later flowers in spring), February to April.

Ideally you should choose a spot where they can be left undisturbed so they can naturalise and spread. Avoid excessively wet conditions when dormant.
