Anemone 'De Caen'

Do wish these did better in my zone. Most don't survive overwintering. A couple always do and I try to spread their seeds in hopes that just maybe their offspring will be tough enough to make it. Every so often I find myself buying another pack of bulbs, even though I know better. This one was in bloom earlier this month.

RE: Anemone 'De Caen'

Many years ago, when I first started gardening, I tried these and loved them, only to find out that they didn't overwinter. I haven't grown them since, although I often toy with the idea of growing some as annuals.

I actually did buy some from my nephew's school fundraiser last year, but now that I think of it, I don't think I ever saw them, lol. Guess they were brought by him to a family function to give to me and forgotten there, lol.
