Perennial
Cultivation:
Plant Windflowers in partial sun in moist well drained fertile
soil. In optimum growing conditions this perennial can become
invasive to neighboring plants.
Propagation: Anemone seed can be germinated in a cold frame,
but the seed can be quite difficult to start. For better results purchase
pre-started Windflower plants at your local Garden Center. Space
new container grown plants 8" to 12" apart. Once established,
rhizomes can be divided in the spring.
Potential pests ~ diseases: Powdery mildew or slugs. |
