FAQs

Please read our FAQs page to find out more.

Why do anemone bulbs look dry, hard and shrivelled when they arrive?

Anemones are usually supplied as dormant corms rather than round, fleshy bulbs. They are naturally dry, hard and irregular in shape while dormant, so this does not mean they are poor quality. A healthy anemone corm should be firm, not soft, wet or badly mouldy. For many garden anemones, especially Anemone coronaria, soaking the corms in tepid water before planting helps them rehydrate and start into growth. Always follow the planting information for the specific anemone product.

Why have my anemone corms not grown?

Anemone corms can fail when planted into cold, waterlogged soil, left to dry out after planting or placed in a position that does not suit their type. Most need free-draining soil, as wet conditions can cause corms to rot before shoots emerge. Give newly planted corms time, as they may take several weeks to establish and show growth. Check the planting season on the product page, as different anemones are planted at different times of year.

Can I plant anemone bulbs in autumn or spring?

Many spring-flowering anemones can be planted in autumn or spring, depending on the type and your growing conditions. Anemone coronaria corms can be planted in autumn in mild areas for earlier flowers, or in spring for summer flowering. In colder parts of the UK, protect young growth from hard frost. Choose a sunny or lightly shaded position with rich, free-draining soil for the best results.

Do anemone bulbs come back every year?

Many anemones are perennial and can return each year when planted in suitable conditions. After flowering, allow the foliage to die back naturally so the corm can store energy for the next season. Most bulb-grown anemones need dry conditions while dormant, so avoid watering heavily after the leaves have faded. In colder or wetter areas, winter protection or lifting may be helpful for less hardy types.

Will my anemone flowers look like the photographs?

Anemone corms should produce flowers in the colour and form shown in the product description. Natural variation in weather, light and soil conditions can make blooms appear slightly lighter or darker than they do in product images, and screens can alter perceived colour. Planting anemones in the correct position and avoiding waterlogged soil will give the best chance of healthy plants, strong stems and a good flowering display.
