Anemone blanda White Splendour
The RHS Award of Garden Merit
A. blanda is native to the Balkans and Turkey, where it grows in shady places. It is a knobby tuber from which grow dissected leaves finely divided into 3 leaflets, which grow to about 10cm 4in high. A. blanda White Splendour has stunning, long lived pure white flowers with yellow stamens, pink tinged on the reverse about ¾ to1 ¼ “ (3-5 cm) across each with 10-15 petals. This is a plant for that dry spot under deciduous shade, where the sunshine of the spring can be used to flower and grow the tuber, while the heat of the summer is kept at bay by the canopy of trees.
Planting instructions
Plant the tubers after an overnight soak in cool water. Place them shallowly (3-4 cm deep) 3” apart, in soil which is free draining and humus rich, where they can be left undisturbed, for clumps to develop, and seedlings to grow on. An annual dressing of leaf mould will help retain moisture.
