Anemone 2016

Some of the fabulous double Anemone ranunculoides varieties found by Taavi Tuulik in Estonia are beginning to flower: Ellen, Prinz Eugen, Roosi, Star 1, and Taavi's Double.

I've been growing Anemone nemorosa 'Bracteata' for many years.  This year the patch has the expected flower forms, some with single flowers way above the green and white frills, and some plain singles.

Prinz Eugen, is not in fact one of Taavi's finds, but comes from Vienna.

It's a lovely form Claire.

I'm a bit worried about my Anemone nemorosa forms, not one of them showing yet

All of mine are the normal white forms David, they have been up awhile and looking great. Sorry mate.

Mine are only just emerging. Don't worry.

Thanks for giving me hope Anne, it really is a mad old season.

 Time enough yet-  just thinking about it here. (Mind you, that doesn't  chime well with all your daffs being past  )

Over here the blue forms of A.nemorosa come up and flower about two weeks later than our native white plants, or white cultivars which I have bought.

Some Anemone nemorosa still blooming.
Anemone nemorosa ' Hilda'
Anemone nemorosa 'Allenii'
A self sown seedling beside A. 'Allenii'  -  the flowers are quite small but it is a nice shape  I like it
Anemone nemorosa 'Evelyn Meadows',  a gift last year ( thanks Olive Mason).  It has not turned pink yet.  The outside was quite red before it opened.

Roma's post just reminded me here's Anemone nemorosa 'Robinsoniana' today. A. 'Vestal' appears to have gone to the great garden in the sky but has been replaced by a couple of replacements I picked up from Plantsman's Preference in Norfolk a couple of weeks ago.
