Description
Anemones are very small bulbs which produce daisy-like flowers. These plants are part of the Ranunculaceae family and are known for their colorful, delicate flowers.
The Anemone Coronaria Bicolor is known for its striking and unique color pattern. Its petals feature a bold contrast of white, red, pink, and blue or black, creating an eye-catching "bicolor" appearance in gardens. The flower has broad, smooth-edged petals, giving it a delicate yet bold look, while the dark stamen at its center serves as a dramatic focal point. This plant typically grows to 8-12 inches in height, with blooms ranging from 2 to 3 inches in diameter.
Environment
Anemones require full sun to partial shade and thrive in fertile, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0-7.0). Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged and soak the corms in water for 4-6 hours before planting. Plant the corms 1-2 inches deep with the pointed end facing down, spaced 3-4 inches apart. For optimal growth, use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at planting time.
Landscape Use
Anemones create great groundcovers and borders in full and partial sun areas.
