Anemone Correction

A few weeks ago I posted on anemones blooming, but I misidentified the cultivars. Honorine Jobert is later blooming. The cultivar I have is probably Andrea Atkinson, which blooms about the same time as the double pink I have, which probably is Pamina, a shorter and more hardy cultivar than is Bressingham Glow (as I mistakenly identified the pink).

My anemones are about finished blooming now, but in a public park I found a spread of Honorine Jobert lavishly flowering here in the last week of October. Of course, a drawback to late flowering is that the weather is not always in the seventies, as it is here this week.

Honorine Jobert seems more sturdily upright than my earlier-blooming cultivar.

Here were my anemones in September:

I wish I had room for a group of Honorine Jobert, but as someone noted, anemones are not team players and work best in a group of themselves.
