Anemone x hybrida 'Whirlwind' - Japanese Anemone

Pure white, semi-double flowers measuring 4 in. across top very tall stems beginning in late summer. It continues to bloom into October, and can usually withstand a light frost. A staple item for the Autumn border, Japanese anemones are graceful plants with beautiful, satiny flowers borne on tall stems above a clump of shorter basal foliage. Watching them sway in the breeze brings a feeling of calm and peace to the garden. Since they are a bit late to rise in the spring, they make an ideal cover for the dying foliage of spring bulbs. Supplied in approx 2-3 litre containers.
