ANEMONE FULGENS 
Neither color illustrations nor descriptive adjectives can adequately portray the beauty 
of these Scarlet Windflowers, although their name, fulgens, indicates something of their fiery 
red coloring. Aside from their intrinsic value for brilliance and form, they are unusual in 
supplying such high coloring so early in the season, occasionally blooming here in the North- 
west in January, but ordinarily starting to open in February and continuing until near May Ist. 
The color is comparable to that of the species Tulip, fosteriana, but with perhaps a bit less 
orange in its composition. The daisy-like flowers are 2 to 2% inches in diameter and are borne 
on stems about six inches long at the start of the season with increasing height to 12 to 15 
inches at the close. Splendid for cut flowers. The blooms close at night and on cloudy days

arm room. In our opinion, the finest of all 
anemones with which we are acquainted. 
This plant grows from a rootstock which 
appears to be little more than a gnarled and 
twisted piece of dead bark. Should pref- 
erably be planted in the fall and given loose 
friable soil with good drainage but plenty 
of moisture during the growing season. Pos- 
sibly not hardy in very cold sections but has 
withstood zero temperatures here. Where 
lower temperatures prevail some protection 
would be advisable, such as a cover of fir 
boughs or a cold frame. Spring planting 
would likely give very few blooms the first 
year; in fact, fall planting will not assure a 
maximum display until the second year. A 
very worth while companion to your Daffo- 
dil planting. 25c each, $2.50 per dozen.
