Anemone pavonina ocellata ......a JCA collection (I lost the label and collection number unfortunately)

Thank you Tony,
seems to be a reason for a new visit there (for me) - hoping to realise it
besides all the other plans!

Some Ranunculus asiaticus which seem to fit in anemones.

What a color on the 2 first shots

Having read some of the discussion about identifying blue anemones, I'm reluctant to suggest a name for this; anyone care to name it? 'Robinsoniana'?

[David Nicholson]

I would have said so, but then what do I know.

This superficially looks like what I grow as 'Robinsoniana'.

From 'Rare Plants' (Paul Christian)  website (perhaps not all that helpful if one has only  one form):

"Anemone nemorosa Robinsoniana
This clone has large, pale Wisteria blue blooms backed with a very pale grey-purple exterior, which makes this clone instantly recognisable (it is sometimes confused with allenii).

Anemone nemorosa Allenii
This has flowers of a lovely deep blue with a subtle infusion of indigo on the face of the flowers.
The reverse, and buds, are zoned with violet infused with grey, a very characteristic colouration and once seen it is instantly identifiable. The flowers sit over noticeably deeper green foliage than many clones."

Robinsoniana and Allenii, ( I think I have both, are both rather larger and taller than the other blues I grow, and also a paler lavender blue.

My Anemone nemorosa 'Robinsoniana' are giving a fine show this year.  The flowers are larger than some of my other cultivars.

My A. n. Robinsoniana give a fantastic show in my crevice bed - yes my crevice bed. They come up through maybe 30cm of vertical sand stone. Why there? Because the soil under the stones is made up of recycled pot contents and I must have dumped them in and didn't notice the 'twigs'.

and how they look this morning

Lost label Anemone nemorosa cultivar planted years ago and clumping up nicely. Can anyone identify?
