Snowdrop Windflowers. White, spring blooming anemone

Snowdrop Windflower. Extra large pure white fragrant flowers are held well above lush foliage in spring. A great groundcover for bright shade that is not too dry. Nice when paired with bulbs. Flowers fade to form attractive cottony seed heads.

Anemone Madonna, unlike its fall blooming cousins, shines in the spring. The satiny white flowers with buttery yellow centers sway gracefully on slender stems. Charming!

Anemone General Information

A spring-blooming Anemone! Excellent for shaded or woodland gardens. A low-maintenance groundcover. Best in humus-rich soil and bright shade. Can repeat bloom in fall's cooler weather. Idaho has restricted all potted plant material from being shipped into Idaho at this time.

Anemone Plant Care

Easy to grow. Mature plants will spread to fill in. Leaves blacken in winter, so you may want to cut back in the fall. Transplanting is best done in the spring. Anemone benefit from a general purpose fertilizer or compost in late fall to late winter.

Plantable Pots

Our plants are grown in 3.5x3.5x4” plantable pots. Made from 100% biodegradable coconut husk fibers (coir), these pots have tremendous advantages over plastic pots. With better air exchange, this "breathable" pot fosters robust root growth and reduces transplant shock since you can plant the pots directly in the ground. The pot naturally becomes part of the soil on its own over time—no composting required—and since they're made from a renewable resource that requires very little energy, they're earth-friendly too!

We offer a 100% unconditional guarantee for all our perennials to reach you in good condition and to grow. If you're not satisfied, we'll reship or refund immediately.
