Anemones. 
The Anemones with their beauti- 
ful large double and single flowers 
and finely-cut foliage, are not so well 
known as they should be ; but a great 
demand for these splendid flowers 
would soon spring up if they were 
grown well, and people discovered for 
themselves how really beautiful and 
brilliant they are. For beds, masses, 
and cutting purposes they are superb, 
their rich and dazzling colours pro- 
ducing a magnificent display. They 
are hardy, and remarkably free 
flowering, and may be grown in any 
fairly rich garden soil that is 
moderately well drained. The bulbs 
should be planted 4 to 6 inches 
apart, and 2 to 8 inches deep. If 
the ground be at all wet or heavy, 
planting should be deferred till the 
early Spring. 
For several rare and lovely varieties 
of Anemones, see Plant Catalogue . 
FULGENS (Scarlet Wind Flower). 
Perhaps no plant can compete 
in the early Spring with this 
splendid variety in beauty and 
brilliancy. Its flowers are of a 
dazzling scarlet, and in favoured 
spots make their appearance as 
early as the beginning of Feb- 
ruary. A rich loam mixed with 
well rotted manure and a 
moderately moist situation suit 
it best. The tubers may be 
planted either in the Autumn or 
the Spring. They should be left 
undisturbed for two or three 
years if possible. Per 100, 8/-; 
per dozen, 1/8. 
NOTE. —Many spurious strains of 
this beautiful .Anemone are offered : 
we guarantee our stock to be the 
true single, bright scarlet form.
