I bought these as possible flowers for my daughter's wedding bouquet. Although I didn't use them in the end, I was so pleased to have them in the garden as they are stunningly beautiful anemones! Im hoping they will come back next year...

This anemone has a fabulous rich colour, one of many of the more unusual plants availlable from Crocus. Their web site offers a rewarding search for plants not generally stocked by the big plant centres.

Beautiful flower, just like the images. Very easy to plant and maintain, I'm a novice any they aleady have their leaves for next year. Easy to replant if you need to move then, great addition to any border!

These wonderful flowers come up quite early in later winter, early spring and stay in bloom for a couple of weeks. I have planted them under trees and want them to naturalise but nevertheless plant more and more each year. Good to plant with rananculus which bloom shortly after the anenomes.

You will need to pre-soak the tubers before planting, then keep the soil moist but not too wet, otherwise they can rot. Hope this helps.

Hello, This plant prefers a spot in full sun - otherwise the growth can get a little sparse. If it is not getting sun for the best part of the day (and you don't suspect a cat or other animal is squashing the plant), then I would be tempted to move it to a better spot after it has died back.

Spring bulbs, such as daffodils and hyacinths, can be planted whenever the soil conditions allow. As a rough guide, cover them with about twice as much soil as the bulb is deep: so that a 5cm (2in) deep bulb would need a 15cm (6in) deep hole so that it
