Tips to Grow Anemone

  1. Arrange good quality anemone corms.
  2. The soil should be evenly moist, but not wet or soggy. It should be well drained and slightly acidic also.
  3. Soak the hard roots in water overnight before planting.
  4. Choose a pot that has adequate drainage holes. Place corms directly where the plant is to grow at a depth of 1 inch and 6 inches apart. Ensure that the flat part of the corm is facing upwards when planting.
  5. We can spread 2-3 inch layer of organic mulch around the plants in early summer for better growth.
  6. Cut anemones to use in arrangements just as the blossoms open. As the flowers fade in the garden, trim them off with scissors or pruning shears.
