Anemone ‘Whirlwind’ (Japanese Anemone)

USDA Zone: 5-9

Japanese Anemone are outstanding plants for the late summer and fall garden. The branching stems of poppy-like flowers are superb for cutting. Plants prefer a rich, moist site, spreading to form a large patch. This is a taller selection, featuring very large semi-double snow-white blossoms. Good for part shade. Use a winter mulch in colder regions, particularly if planting in the fall. Easily divided in early spring. May need to be staked by late summer.
