Description
Flaunt a fantasy flower patch with a cheery crop of fresh-for-the-picking Anemone 'Radiant Rainbows'. With large, long-lasting blooms and plenty of stem to work with, these anemones are fantastic cut flowers, and of course just as gorgeous if you prefer to keep them as part of your garden planting scheme. The colour accent starts at the centre of the flower and bleeds out to pure white just like watercolour on wet paper. Each flower is unique perfection, and the colour combination works so beautifully well.
Whether you choose to grow Anemone 'Radiant Rainbows' to cut for indoor arrangements or to enjoy their gleaming, graceful blooms as special spotlights in the garden, we’re sure you will adore this mix. They’re easy to grow in the right spot, and that is a sheltered, sunny part of the garden with free draining soil. They’re not fully resilient in winter weather so we recommend giving them some protection during cold snaps.
Familiarity doesn’t always breed contempt. You will certainly be familiar with the poppy-like flowers of these mixed bicolor Rainbow anemones, but there’s no way you would ever feel contempt. These gorgeous, colourful cup-shaped blooms that emerge in a host of shades ranging from the pale to the rich and the red to the blue to the violet pink, will instead provide nothing short of delight in mid to late spring. Anemone 'Radiant Rainbows' bloom year after year in your garden, filling your landscape with an array of colour. But that’s only if you can resist cutting these lovely flowers for a colourful bouquet indoors!
