Growth form
Maple-like, lobed or divided, coarsely hairy, dark green leaves, about 10 cm in size, depending on the variety, grow between 60 and 130 cm (20-30 cm without flowers), sometimes even up to 180 cm. Over time, the anemones develop into very large plants, which can then be carefully divided in spring.
blossom
The flowers are arranged in loose clusters; depending on the variety, the flowering period begins in July and continues into October. The color palette of the 4-6cm flowers ranges from white through all shades of pink to purple. The petals can also appear in a simple, elegant bowl shape or in a narrow form in a "wonderfully ruffled" flower head.
Location requirements
It prefers partially shaded to sunny locations in moist, fresh soil, provided the soil remains moist even in summer; perennial plant lovers generally need 9-12 plants per square meter (or even half that number for vigorous-growing varieties).
