Genus: Anemone

I think iv These growing in my garden Chris as the Leaf looks Simailar?

Beautiful!

Lovely bright colours.

Very lovely flower

Lovely anemone photos.

Beautiful photo

Very pretty in the garden at this time of the year.

One of my favourite flowers. We have blue ones in drifts in a shady area of the garden. They go so well with the Ilex Golden King (a holly which is female and has berries!)

Beautiful colour, has something had a nibble?

WOW such a beauty and a charmer Sassy must look out for this one for my garden yes a little treasure indeed.

Stunning Photo Andrea I planted these in my garden last Autumn part of my garden trying to make it a woodland area.

This is a new type of anemone to me!

Lovely Colour :O

Excellent.I'm going to plant some this year

Very sweet! : )

So tiny&pretty :)

Thanks for posting.! If you hadn't I would not have known they came in white. I've only seen the purple and pink variety. The white is definielty my favorite, it really stands out.!

No apologies needed. They look great to me. And... the garden wall looks great. Interesting stone work.

They really are amazing Treesandthings, and the photo doesn't do them justice. As you can see, they are growing in grass that is pretty patchy - it's overhung by what i think is a Sea Buckthorn tree in our neighbour's garden - a lovely twisted trunk, with glorious berries and beloved by the birds - not much else grows here, but the anemones seem to thrive here. They open in the sun and shut in the shade - which means I miss them during the week when I'm at work, but catching up with them on a sunny weekend day is just great.

I think this looks lovely Buzzbee

I have some of these growing for the first time this year. This evening I noticed just how many were flowering at the same time. I believe you when you say how amazing they look.

I'm trying to establish some in my garden this year.I hope they will look as good as yours.

Interesting!!

A great photo of a very cute little flower.Well done.Hel.xxx.

This is so crisp and pure!! Lovely~

They are such cheery flowers. We find them naturalising all over the place - usually after sweeping the paths to collect up the forest bark that has come off the borders - the anenome seeds are presumably collected up, too, and thrown back on the borders.

Lovely :)

The colour looks pretty&bright with the dark background:)

like your garden chrispook love your photos ,it will soon look like a english cottage garden.

the colours of my home team ,sunderland, very nice,

well i hope ul have a safe journey chris and il miss u x

I'll do my best Jacque. Trouble is we go away on Thursday for 10 days. We will be working in Slovakia and Serbia, so I guess I won't be on line for a while.

Just make sure i dont miss it Chris :)

Wait till it comes out!!!

Fantastic Pic Chris & the colour of this Anemone is Lovely:D

Beautiful !

I must look out for these, I've got the other sort anemone de caen.

Lovely clump of anemones you have there, wish they grew that well for me.!

Agreed - such a lot of flower for such a wee plant! And pictures never seem to capture the correct shade of purple/blue. They seem to be selfseeding in my garden - which they may as much as they like!

Wow this Blue is Lovely :)

Very beautiful flower. I will have to get some anemones this year.

I've only got 1 flower out at present but there are two more buds coming.

ooooh i do love this, i love Anemones i don't have any in my garden, but they are always the first thing i pick up when making a spring BQ.

Many of the simplest flowers provide amazing colour and performance, in my opinion. Although, your poor anemones must be exhausted in this very changeable weather, lol!

Very beautiful flower.

My what an arresting shade of red.! I'd love to have a hundred of them..lol

What a wonderful colour. Blue flowers just seem to stand out in a garden

How beautiful!

What Fab colour : )

We have two Anemone blanda that have come into flower so far - and more on the way - your picture captures them perfectly.

OK. Thanks. I will plant them elsewhere to give them the best chance!

My anemone blanda are growing in an area shaded by a flowering cherry. You might want to give them some shade

I must be lucky ,I have grown them only from corms, maybe mice like them!!!

That's how I've always grown them before, too, Owdboggy, but the corms came in a pack of mixed miniature bulbs. I might as well have a go, nothing ventured as they say! I am going to plant them in my new border...see blog...:-)

Well I hope you have more success than I have ever had. I have planted them off and on, in every possible method over the last 30 years or so and never managed to get one corm to grow. I have them in the garden growing from bought plants, but never from dried corms.

Thanks - I'll plant them today. :-)

No need to soak,better planted in groups, will self seed very quickly and have a habit of appearing where you did not plant them!!!

Just plant them out. Mine have self sown/spread over the years so they must be pretty easy

Thanks Ktmed, it looks a lot taller here.
