Anemone tomentosa
grape leaf Anemone
Description
Anemone tomentosa, commonly known as the Japanese Anemone, is a late-blooming perennial that adds a touch of elegance to the autumn garden. It features large, cup-shaped flowers in shades of pink or white, held on slender stems above a clump of attractive foliage. The plant's tomentose (hairy) leaves contribute to its name. Japanese anemones prefer partial shade and moist, well-drained soil. Provide adequate spacing and support, as the stems can sometimes become top-heavy. They are known for their ability to naturalize and spread, creating a beautiful display over time. They are relatively deer resistant, adding to their appeal.
