Do the nurseries listed in 'The Plant Finder' not actually have it, or is it an export problem?

I got it from Crug farm I think four years ago and it was probably micro-propped. It is a pathetic grower with me,I think with a very poor constitution and is still not flowering size. They may still have it.

Wim just been out and looked at mine which is dying down for the winter. Still only one crown so it will not divide.It would be interesting to know if anybody has flowered it.

Patience has been rewarded and it has been worthwhile. It now seems to have gained some strength and is slowly building up.I do not yet know if it will set seed and if it does if they will be true.

Beautiful indeed.  Are there other cultivars or color forms of Anemonopsis?  Even the regular mauve color form, takes a very long time to establish and build up.  Mine is very well-flowered this year, at long last, although leaf color is a bit yellowish green, I think stressed from the heat and drought, but flowering all the same.

Anemonopsis macrophylla is my fovourite plant and have grown for many years.
It will set seeds and will be ripen after 3 or 4 weeks.
