ANEMONE SYLVESTRIS IS A RELIABLE PERENNIAL
I first planted the Anemone sylvestris that I have in my garden in 2014 and yet each year it appears again. I have moved it once or twice but it has been in its present position, right next to a path leading to my garden room, for years and years. It is looking fabulous right now and so I thought it deserved another mention on my blog. It has flowers in abundance right now and will provide flowers more spasmodically through summer as long as I keep dead-heading.
| Anemone sylvestris May 2026 The label said that Anemone sylvestris is a clump forming herbaceous perennial with divided green leaves, fragrant white cup-shaped flowers with yellow anthers, on upright stems. It should be grown in well-drained soil in full sun and achieves a size of 40cm x 40cm (18in x 18in). The RHS webpage indicates that it is unfussy about soil, aspect, exposure, tolerates full sun or partial shade, and is hardy at H6 (down to -20c). |
