Unpack bare roots or rhizomes on arrival and plant them within a week. Until then, keep them somewhere cool and ensure the roots remain slightly moist, never wet.

Anemone
'Prinz Heinrich'
Japanese anemone
A beautiful compact Japanese anemone for the garden border. At first, the flowers of Anemone 'Prinz Heinrich' are a rich, deep pinkish purple, but as they age the colour lightens. This is a semi-double type, and the petals are interesting in that they are variable in length, and often quilled or twisted. This gives the flowers an informal look that goes particularly well in more naturalistic borders or gardens. The flowers are carried elegantly on slender stems, above a clump of handsome vine-shaped leaves!
The flowers on the fully hardy Anemone × hybrida 'Prinz Heinrich' will attract bees and other pollinating insects, and the plant itself appears to be rabbit-resistant.

Remove the packaging straight away, check the compost and water thoroughly if dry. Check the plant’s hardiness before placing it outdoors. Plant into a border or permanent container within a month, choosing the position recommended for the variety. Keep the top of the root ball level with the surrounding soil, firm gently and water well.
Soak the roots in water for three to six hours immediately before planting. Keep any crown, buds or emerging shoots above the water where possible.
Pot most bare roots into 15–20cm pots filled with peat-free multipurpose compost. Large or depth-sensitive roots, including peonies, are often best planted directly into borders.
Arrange the roots naturally without bending them. Cover the roots completely, positioning the crown and buds at the depth recommended for that particular perennial.
Keep pots in a sheltered outdoor position and water whenever the compost begins to dry. Grow on until roots hold the compost together when lifted from the pot.
Plant into a suitable border or permanent container once well rooted. Add a label and water regularly throughout the first growing season while the perennial establishes.
