FAQ about Anemone – White

What kind of soil suits anemones best?
Anemones thrive in well-drained, humus-rich soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. The soil should be moist but not wet, as standing water rots the tubers. Soak the tubers for a few hours before planting.
How often should anemones be watered?
Keep the soil evenly moist during growth and flowering, watering about once or twice a week in dry weather. Avoid overwatering and water the soil rather than the leaves.
How long do cut anemones last?
Cut anemones last about five to eight days. Recut the stems, use a vase with only a little water and change it daily. Anemones keep opening and growing in the vase and turn towards the light, so turn the vase now and then.
Which pests and diseases can affect anemones?
Aphids and slugs are the most common pests. Grey mould and tuber rot can appear in damp conditions with poor air circulation. Good drainage and enough space between plants prevent most problems.
How do anemones overwinter?
Florist's anemones are not reliably hardy. In mild, well-drained gardens they can stay in the ground under a thick layer of mulch. In cold, exposed gardens or wet soil, lift the tubers once the foliage has died down, store them dry and frost-free, and replant in spring.
