Anemone St. Brigid

Pack of 40 corms

A beautiful mixture of semi-double rainbow bright flowers including red, lilac, purple, red, royal blue and white.

Anemone St. Brigid is a herbaceous perennial with palmately lobed foliage and cheerful saucer-shaped flower heads.

Create a wave of confetti colour by planting en masse in full or half sun.

We recommend planting a few more than you require so that you have some Anemones left for bouquets – they are favoured by florists for their strong stems and ability to last a long time.

Anemones require very little maintenance too!

Prefers a sunny position and look great in large groups.

Plant them in autumn between September and december for flowering in April-June and in spring (from March onwards) for flowering in July-August.

Instructions for planting

When to plant:

Anemones can be planted through the year

Autumn for flowering in April-June
Spring for flowering in July-August

Summer for flowers in autumn

It is important to soak corms in water prior to planting to awake them

Plant the bulbs 2″ (5cm) deep and 2-4″ (5-10cm) apart

When planting the corms, don’t worry about which end is up. They can be positioned in any direction and the sprouts will find their way to the sun

Plant in groups for a great show

Plant in a well drained, moist soil, will tolerate clay, sandy, loamy, chalk and peat type soils.

Best location: full sun or partial shade

Please note: Like many other flower bulbs anemones demand that the soil has adequate drainage. If water pools in the area where you are planting your corms, it will most likely lead to the corms rotting. Poorly drained soil is a common reason for them to failure so please make sure the entire flower bed is adequately drained. When planting in a heavy soil, you can place at least some sand, grit (or vermiculite, if available) into each hole under the bottom of the bulbs to help with drainage.

Height 10-30cm.
