Anemones — Continued. 
The Anemones with their beautiful 
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 dis- 
covered for themselves how really beau- 
tiful and brilliant they are. For beds, 
masses, and cutting purposes they are 
superb, their rich and dazzling colours 
producing 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 14 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 Floiver ) . 
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 February. 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, 1/3 
NOTE. — Many spurious strains of this 
beautiful Anemone are offered ; we guar- 
antee our stock to be the true single, 
bright scarlet form.

The true Aldeborough variety, far ahead of the original type. A beautiful, free-flowering strain of robust habit and growth, producing 
about 95 per cent, of double flowers in a great variety of colours, from the most brilliant crimson-scarlet to purple and white. The flowers 
are of immense size, and for cutting purposes are of the greatest possible service ; we get them direct from Ireland.
