Blue Poppy Anemone produces gorgeous violet-blue, poppy-like flowers finished with a dark button centre. The blooms sit neatly above fresh green foliage and look incredible planted in generous groups, bringing strong colour to winter and spring gardens. They also make an excellent cut flower.

Blue Poppy is a De Caen (Poppy Anemone) type, classed as a Single flower, meaning it has one row of petals (unlike the double, ruffled St Brigid types).

Anemones are great value and very easy to grow. For the longest display, stagger your planting and enjoy flowers for months. For best results, chill the rhizomes for 5 to 6 weeks before planting (we’ve already done this for you), then soak in fresh water for 10 to 12 hours prior to planting. They prefer cooler conditions, with soil temperatures around 12 to 15°C, so avoid high temperatures at planting time.

Expect 6 to 8 cm blooms in a brilliant winter to spring display, highly prized for cutting.

Anemones (also known as Windflowers) are one of the best-bang-for-your-buck varieties. One of the easiest ways to add colour and beauty to your Spring garden. Simple to grow, and incredibly floriferous.

These tiny little Rhizomes pack a real punch! Anemones are fantastic planted in mass, and make a great cut flower. To prolong your display, they can be stagger planted.
