Grow Anemone coronaria in well drained, sandy soil in full sun. Plant bulbs at a depth of 5 - 8cm below ground level. Water well to settle the soil.
Anemone coronaria requires a dry dormant period in summer. Reduce watering when the foliage begins to die back after flowering in early summer. During their summer dormancy it may not be obvious where the bulbs are planted – take care not to disturb them when tending to other later flowering perennials. In autumn apply a mulch of well rotted manure or garden compost. Alternatively, the bulbs can be lifted, dried and stored in a frost free position over winter, for replanting the following year.
We will do our best to ship your plants or bulbs to you at the ideal time for planting as stated against each product. We recommend that you prepare your soil, planting beds or patio containers ahead of time so you are ready to plant out, or pot on, just as soon as your order arrives. You will find the name of the variety printed on the top line of the address label on your package. Please ensure that you open the packaging immediately and carefully read through the instruction leaflet provided. For greatest success, please pot on or plant out as soon as possible, following the cultural instructions enclosed with your order.
