Description

Anemone Blanda ‘Blue Shades’ offers a sea of serene, clear blue, even when the skies are grey. A highly sought-after colour in the natural world, these easy, breezy blues are a breath of fresh air for your garden. Featuring petals in shades ranging from bright cobalt to powder blue, promoting a feeling of restful tranquillity. The serrated, finely cut foliage provides brilliant, weed-suppressing groundcover. These bulbs will readily naturalise and have earned an RHS Award of Garden Merit for their reliability. Underplant later-flowering perennials, shrubs and trees, edge paths, and fill containers for a dreamy, soft wash of calming colour throughout spring.

Care Guide

To grow Anemones successfully, select a partly shaded area with well-drained, humus-rich soil. Pre-soak corms overnight in tepid water, planting 5-8cm deep and 15cm apart the following day. Keep soil consistently moist without waterlogging and feed with dilute liquid seaweed every week during flower production. Graceful stems of open-faced blooms rise to heights of 15-30cm between March and June. The delicate flowers are wonderful for cutting and arranging. Can be grown undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel for earlier flowers and may also be grown in containers or crates.
