  Shallow bowl-shaped flowers in pretty pastel shades of mauve, pink, and cream appear from March to April above the finely divided, dark green leaves. These delightful poppy-flowered anemones make long-lasting, charming cut flowers with their generous, upright stems. ‘Galilee Pastel Mixed’ are ideal for a sheltered, sunny border or patio pot.
  
  
• Garden care: 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. Ideally you should choose a spot where they can be left undisturbed so they can naturalise and spread. Avoid excessively wet conditions when dormant.
