ANEMONE fulgens, The Scarlet Starry Windflower of the Pyrenees and Greece. This 
hcauliful early Spring flower with its ricli dazzling scarlet colour and light elegant growth 
should be used largely in wild gardens, orchards, woodlands, on banks, etc. If planted early 
in Autumn, flowers may be gathered, weather permitting, horn Christmas; its hardiness is 
beyond all question, and the roots may be safely planted any month from August to February, in 
a position protected from ground winds and with a sunny or S.W. aspect. Anemone fu/gens

ground is wet. per loo per doz.
