Anemone Nemerosa Robinsoniana
M5115
Description
A rare cultivar of the wild wood anemone, ‘Nemerosa Robinsoniana’ is a striking variety with exquisite lavender-blue petals and attractive, deeply cut dark-green foliage.
Plant the rhizomes in moist soil which is rich in leafmould and situated in the shade of a large tree or shrub. Over time, Anemone ‘Nemerosa Robinsoniana’ will naturalise, forming ample clumps of large, delicate blooms which open up between May and June, providing pretty groundcover.
Winner of a coveted Award of Garden Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society and a delight to find blooming in the border or woodland area during late 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.
