ANEMONE SECTION 
The Anemone flowers consist of one or more rows of flat or tubular ray 
florets with shorter quilled or tubular disc florets of the same or a distinct 
color and may be grown either disbudded or in sprays according to their 
adaptability. 
The large flowering Anemone types are usually pinched when small, per¬ 
mitting four to six growths to continue until buds are formed. Then the 
plants are disbudded to one flower to the growth, making more serviceable 
flowers for the arrangement of baskets and other floral designs. The recent 
introductions are marvelous for their beauty and surpass the older varieties 
in size. These should be given full consideration by those who are looking 
for something artistic and unusual.
