Description
Let the bright red and white Anemone coronaria 'Hollandia' and mauve 'Mr Fokker' be attendants to The Bride. Her simple pure-white beauty will shine even more when surrounded by their dramatic shades. Anemone coronaria 'Hollandia' exquisite poppy-like flower emerges like veil pieces from a bridal hair wreath of golden stamens round a green centre. This alone sets her apart from her companions with their big black cup centres.
All three of these showy varieties are among the extremely popular French cultivars that originated in the De Caen area of Normandy. Often called florists’ anemones, they make extremely good cut flowers, with Anemone coronaria 'The Bride', obviously, a wonderful choice for weddings in late spring or early summer.
