Growing at a glance…
Anemone corms and bulbs can be planted roughly 5-7cm deep and twice their width apart. Soak them in water for 12-24 hours before planting. They are an excellent choice for borders or rockeries, but can also be grown in pots or containers. Ensure they have good drainage, as these blooms are very sensitive to damp conditions. They will naturalise and multiply over the years.
