ANEMONE or WINDFLOWER 
Anemones thrive wonderfully in border or rockery, some 
kinds in woodlands. The chalice-like blossoms are often 
set in soft ruffs of downy green, and after the petals have 
fallen, iridescent silken seed tassels will prolong the charm. 
Plants bloom in one year. Seed sown in late autumn usually 
germinates strongly the following spring. If sown in spring 
or summer, it may come fairly quickly, or it may lie dor¬ 
mant until spring has come again.
