Anemones (Japanese and Wood Anemones)

Anemone hupehensis 'Bowles' Pink' AGM £4.50
A pretty, and relatively safe 'Japanese' anemone. A good deep pink, medium height, with the lovely maroon zones on the backs of the flowers typical of ssp. hupehensis, so its wild relatives must have been Chinese.
Anemone hupehensis 'Pamina' AGM £4.50
Shorter, a tidy semi-double in purplish pink. Belongs in ssp. japonica, but still not too invasive.
Anemone x lipsiensis £3.50
Essentially a smaller, more delicate version of A. nemorosa, with lovely pale yellow flowers. Well worth finding it the humusy soil it needs.

Anemone nemorosa varieties
The wood anemones need little introduction as tough, gently spreading woodlanders, never failing to charm, whether in leaf or flower. First the blues.
Anemone nemorosa 'Mart's Blue' £3.50
A smaller variety with smaller flowers, impressively dark blue, found in Estonia.
Anemone nemorosa 'Miss Eunice' £3.50
Also one of the darkest, with a rather round outline to the flower.
Anemone nemorosa 'Bill Baker's Pink' £3.50 starting pale pink and darkening.
Anemone nemorosa 'Blue Eyes' £3.50 is a shaggy semi-double, white with a blue flush around the centre of the fully double flower.
Anemone nemorosa 'Flore Pleno' £3.50 is a pure white double - increasingly I doubt whether the differences between this and 'Vestal', which people so freely quote, are valid.
Anemone nemorosa 'Gerda Ramusen' £3.50
A fertile semi-double whose white sepals grade into bract-like structures, and sometimes have blue stains at the base - kinda like a Nordic 'Monstrosa' or 'Bracteata Pleniflora'…
Anemone nemorosa 'Lady Doneraile' £3.50 - a muscular plant which has really big white flowers standing head and shoulders above the leaves (it may be the same as Leeds' Variety and Wilks' Giant; nobody knows wood anemones well enough).

Anemone obtusiloba 'Sulphurea' £3.50
Small softly hairy rosettes sending up lemon yellow flowers with a luminous hint of highlighter pen, in spring but often continuing well into summer. 10cm. Humusy soil, light shade.
Anemone ranunculoides ssp. wockeana £3.50
Tiny, floriferous, buttercup yellow wood anemone relative: 5cm.
Anemone ranunculoides 'Semi Plena' £3.50
Just a little taller and semi-double.
Anemone trullifolia £3.75
Rosettes of silky leaves,and blue upfacing flowers on 10cm stems speak of the high mountains. Lovely in a cool position.
Anemone sp. nov.? £4
Chinese, and rhizomatous. White, purple backed flowers, young leaves purple. Height 40cm. Moist, sun.
