ANEMONE, DOUBLE, SINGLE, STELLATA, AND FULGENS. 
An EMON e — continued. 
is unsurpassed amongst Spring flowers. In our Experimental Grounds we usually have Anemones in flower 
from six to eight months. Stray flowers generally appear in November or December. In sheltered localities, 
during mild winters, the graceful and brilliant Anemone fulgens, when left undisturbed, blossoms from January 
till April or May, furnishing a supply of the most charming scarlet flowers for vases and table bouquets ; and if 
successional plantings are made till May, an abundant supply of most beautiful scarlet cut flowers can be 
maintained till July or August in situations not exposed to the mid-day or afternoon sun. Besides these, the 
Starry Windflower (Anemone Stellata), and the beautiful blue Anemone Apennina, with its more early flowering 
congener, Blanda, make up a family of Spring flowers combining diversity and brilliancy of colour almost 
matchless for effect. With the exception of Apennina and Blanda, all the other varieties are valuable as cut 
flowers, and last a long time in water. By successional planting from September to April, a supply of these 
flowers for vases can be ensured to July. When the Anemone is used for pot culture, the pots should remain out 
of doors plunged in ashes to the rim till the flower buds appear. 
Culture. — The Anemone succeeds in any good soil which is moderately well drained. In their native 
habitats they are found in such places as vineyards and oliveyards, where they are partially protected from the 
scorching rays of the sun, the enemy of most spring flowers. 
NEW DOUBLE POPPY ANEMONES, FOR BEDS AND MASSES. 
The flowers of the Double Anemone are extremely handsome, resembling a semi-double Hollyhock, and 
when planted from October to December, they bloom in succession in the early Spring months, while those 
planted in February, March, or April, flower from April to July.

ANEMONE FULGENS (SCARLET WIND FLOWER). 
The Scarlet Wind Flower is the most brilliant and graceful of all Winter and Spring flowering Anemones. 
Its rich dazzling scarlet flowers and light elegant growth make it the most attractive scarlet flower of Spring. It 
is valuable to cut for table bouquets or vases, and lasts a long time in water. If the roots are left undis- 
turbed flowers may be gathered from Christmas to May. Hitherto the stock has been limited, and the price 
almost prohibitive, but having now a good supply, the price has been very considerably reduced to ensure a large 
sale. In addition to the types we offer several varieties, but the stock of these is very limited. For all decorative
