They might call this anemone 'September Charm' but it's flowering tall and proud in my garden right now, late July. I was a bit worried as earlier in the year I had a bit of a shuffle around in my garden, transplanting perennials to more suitable positions so that the tallest are towards the climbers on the fence. I have the
Cherry Red phlox towards the back of my south facing border and moved some penstemons to the back too, but this year anemone 'September Charm' grew very big, into a bush more than 2ft (60cm) high - and that is just the foliage. Lately it has sprouted tall stems and now, as the grand finale, it is displaying a fabulous show of pink blooms with golden centres. Wow! And another plus, it's a pollinating insect magnet.
