Anemone-2012
« on: March 31, 2012, 02:19:36 PM »
Didn't find any entry of Anemones for this year, so decided to start this as tghe first Anemones started blooming. The first is one white from Nachodka in very Far East of Russia. Most likely it is A. altaica.
Another is from Central Asia. I think it is hybrid Anemone eranthoides x  tschernjajevii but I grew it up from Jan Jilek seeds baught as A. tschernjajevii.

The yellow is very beautiful. It looks as if it would be at home in our alpine screes with Ranunculus haastii and Leptinella dendyi. :D

The red centre on the yellow anemone is very special.

Can anyone tell me, does Anemone biflora as above, from Iran, differ greatly from An. biflora as it grows in Kashmir?

I really don't know anything about Anemone, and have this one growing in the garden. It was given to us years ago. Does anyone have any ideas for what it is please?

Ron,

One of the varieties of Anemone nemorosa or a similar species I would think?  How big is it?
Cheers.

Perhaps Anemone nemorosa 'Allenii' - it's a good blue and just a bit bigger than the straight A. nemorosa.

Looking at your foliage, it might also be Anemone nemorosa Robinsoniana      :-\
