ANEMONE fulgens. The Scarlet Starry Windflower of the Pyrenees and Greece. This 
beaulifu early Spring flower with its rich dazzling scarlet colour and light elegant growth 
.should be used largely in wild gardens, orchards, woodlands, on banks, etc. If planted early 
in Autumn, floryers may be gathered, weather permitting, from 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. It likes a 
well-drained rich soil (not too damp). Never plant while the ground is wet.

ANEMONES, Various Beautiful Species for Autumn Planting. Where 
Daffodils are naturalised the following Anemones 
should be freely used : — Anemone afennina, the blue 
Mountain Windflower, forms a dense cushion of rich 
blue and is one of the loveliest of dwarf Spring 
flowers. A. blanda resembles A. afennina in flower, 
but blooms a month earlier. The varieties of 
Anemone nemorosa (the true Wood Anemone), being 
shade-loving plants, should be under trees or in 
shady nooks on rockwork ; naturalised in grass they 
jiresent a picture full of grace and beauty. A. palmata 
likes a damp spot during summer. For other 
beautiful Anemones, see our Hardy Plant 
Catalogue.
