CHARMING LARGE FLOWERED 
ANEMONES 
It is specially the brilliant cutflowers which Anemones give so abundantly that make them so popular. In small beds, 
groups in the garden and small patches in the rockery they produce such a lovely effect. They should be kept during 
the winter in a dry place to be planted at the beginning of March. Plant them 2 inches deep and 3 inches apart. 
They flower from the beginning of June for two months at a stretch and the more flowers you pick from them the 
more they produce. It is also possible to plant them on arrival provided they are covered thoroughly and they 
will then flower early in the Spring. per 12 per 25 p. 100

HALF DOUBLE ST. BRIGID ANEMONES 
We do not think there is a more lovely appearance to be found in the realm of flowers than that of the Anemone 
and this St. Brigid variety is especially the symbol of grace and charm. They produce large flowers of a half double 
shape and the strong stems are surrounded by magnificent foliage. Excellent for groups, beds, edgings and rocker¬ 
ies. They are loose and elegant cutflowers, which last for a long period in water. Give them a sunny place, for 
this is valid for all Anemone varieties. . per 12 per 25 p. 100
