Japanese Anemone
Anemone x hybrida Honorine Jobert
Lovely, symmetrically-formed, single pure white blooms with attractive, buttery-yellow centres are held on long, slender flowering stems from August to October. This is a magnificent, highly sought after, branching windflower which forms a dense clump of robust, deeply-divided, slightly bristled, dark green leaves. It has slightly ruffled petals which give the impression of even more colour and depth and is one of the few perennials that start to look their best in late summer and into the winter. Perfect for a dark corner, background nook or mixed planting, it also makes a great cut flower and can be used to add a lightness and softness to the perennial border. It benefits from being mulched with well-rotted garden compost in early spring and can be lifted and divided every few years in March if required.

Garden Care:

If you order perennials whilst they are dormant, they may not be visible above the soil level when purchased but will burst into life in spring. In the dormant period, we may not have stocks of all varieties in all pot sizes and therefore reserve the right to supply 9cm pots instead of 2 litre and adjust the price accordingly.
