Cut-leaf Wind Flower
Anemone
Wind Flower
“The floure never openth it selfe, but when the wynde bloweth,” wrote William Turner, in A New Herbal (1560). In our garden, however, we enjoy the buttercup-shaped flowers in any weather, windy or not. Tasteful and deceptively delicate looking, Anemone is also tough and undemanding. Most will multiply readily in rich sandy loam, and are perfect for naturalizing in a woodland setting.
Anemone multifida ‘Annabella White’ (P-2221)
Each 11.25
A low-laying ferny mound of finespun green foliage and firm, somewhat fuzzy, upright stems lift the enchanting cupped white blooms. Selected from the North American native Anemone, ‘Annabella White’ keeps our interest sparked as abundant seed heads appear looking a bit like unripe strawberries, then later morph into a fluffy dove-gray mop. This compact undemanding perennial lends lovely accents to the rockery, a cottage garden, alpine planting or naturalized meadow, where it thwarts deer, looks most effective en masse and enjoys average well-drained soil with adequate moisture.
