Blooming This Week (4th week of August):

Anemone vitifolia (syn. tomentosa) 'Robustissima'
("Grape Leaf Anemone")

This is a wonderful plant for the autumn garden with its soft silvery-pink flowers borne atop 24"-36" tall dark wiry stems in August & September. The heavily textured leaves are attractive throughout the year and the flowers provide a "final fling" of delicate fall color. In our experience this is the most reliably hardy of the fall blooming anemones. It is a robust grower and eager increaser. Enjoy it and share the extra with friends!
