Japanese Anemone

Anemone hybrida 'Whirlwind'

Elegant white flowers with yellow centers sit atop dark green foliage.

Japanese Anemone are outstanding plants for the late summer and fall garden. The branching stems of poppy-like flowers are superb for cutting. Plants prefer a rich, moist site, spreading to form a large patch. This is a taller selection, featuring very large semi-double snow-white blossoms. Good for part shade. Use a winter mulch in colder regions, particularly if planting in the fall. Easily divided in early spring. May need to be staked by late summer.
