Product description
The Anemone Wild Swan is an exciting new variety that has the added benefit of flowering intermittently from May to November, making it one of the longest-blooming perennials. This very dainty clump forming cultivar has green leaves and white flowers that are gracefully carried on wiry stems. The petals have grey-blue streaks on their underside which give them a bluish tint when half closed or in bud. Once established, they will thrive with minimal maintenance as they are quite resistant.
Anemones prefer full or part sun. Plant in moist, fertile, humus rich soil. Keep the soil moist and do not let it dry out! Add winter mulch in cool areas and provide some well-rotted manure or compost in spring. It can reach an ultimate height and spread of 40 - 60cm.
Please Note: Images are for illustrative purposes only and designed to be a representation of the item(s) being sold. Depending on seasonality, deciduous plants may be supplied in their dormant state and without leaves. Plants may also be pruned back, lower than stated heights, to encourage new growth.

Garden Plant Size Guide
Plants in larger pots can be multiple years older than their smaller counterparts with more mature root systems and foliage. This makes them able to thrive as a full size plant in your garden quicker than smaller alternatives.
The most common size of pot that garden plants come in are 9cm/1L/3L/5L this is in reference to the diameter at the top of the pot.
9cm potted plants still remain the most popular cost effective option though, they just may take a little patience to allow them to grow into full maturity once planted in your garden.

Top Tip
Don’t be concerned if your anemone appears to die back at the end of the growing season. This is perfectly normal, and it will flower just as prolifically the following year.
How to Water
Water thoroughly when planting then moderately until established. After this, anemones only need to be watered during particularly dry spells. Take care not to over-water.
How to Plant
Position anemones in full sun or partial shade in moist but well-draining soil. Plant as soon as possible after buying and water in well.
