Plant anemones in autumn or spring, depending on when they are supplied. Plant them during the same season, as prolonged storage can reduce their vigour.

Highlight your garden or floral arrangements with preened-to-perfection Anemone 'The Bride'. This beauty enjoys every moment in the spotlight, and rightly so. With petals as perfectly crisp and white as a freshly ironed sheet, this Anemone stands out from the crowd of jewel-coloured coronaria varieties with its pristine and simple, effortless gleaming allure. Each poppy-shaped bloom of Anemone 'The Bride' is formed of a single halo of petals which frames a zingy lime-green button at the centre, encircled by a ring of pale gold fluttery anthers. The flower stems emerge above a tracery of finely cut foliage, weaving lacy, leafy padding through borders or in pots.
Anemone coronaria 'The Bride' is fairly hardy and resilient, naturalising to provide a tranquil display which will return year after year in a sheltered spot. Carefree and versatile, this anemone thrives in sun or shade, blending into almost any planting scheme. Plant these white garden anemones alongside siblings from the De Caen group, such as 'Hollandia' and 'Mr Fokker', and the brilliant petals will shine like diamonds! Naturally, this is a floristry favourite and a popular cut flower to accompany any bride down the aisle. They make a fantastic bouquet, but spare some blooms for pollinators who will appreciate this rich source of nectar.

Soak them in plain water for two to three hours before planting. This rehydrates them and helps to encourage strong, even growth.
Choose a sheltered position in sun or partial shade with rich, well-drained soil. For containers, use a good-quality peat-free multipurpose compost.
Plant 2–5cm deep and 5–10cm apart, placing them on their sides. Planting in informal groups creates the most natural-looking display.
Water after planting and keep the soil lightly moist, never soggy. In colder areas, protect autumn plantings from hard frost or start them in pots under cover.
