Anemone mix - bulbs

Anemone coronaria De Caen mix

APPEARANCE: Free flowering bulb plant with satiny open flowers in hot pink, purple, red, bicolours, and white.
USE FOR: Plant as a flowering border below deciduous trees or group closely in pots for bright spring flowering colour.
CLIMATE: Frost hardy to -10C, to sub-tropical. Flowers last longer in cooler temperatures
PLANTING: Anemones thrive in rich, moist, free draining soil. Prepare clay soil using a clay-breaker and add well composted manure or mulch to help with drainage. Add grit or gravel to your planting holes if your soil is heavy, or plant up into containers. Cover soil with a good layer of mulch to help regulate soil temperature. Bulbs prefer an open sunny location or filtered sun in warmer climates.
CARE: Once planted, water the soil to set the bulb in place. An occasional light watering is all that's needed until the first flowers appear. Water and feed weekly or if the soil becomes dry, give a good deep water (bulbs are generally at least 5 cms below the surface). Once flowering is finished leave plants to die back, it's not the prettiest sight but don't be tempted to trim the yellowing foliage. The nutrients are being drawn back into the bulbs for next year. When the bulbs die back completely remove spent foliage and leave in place for next season.
Contains 50 bulbs.
