Anemone Species, Snowdrop Anemone, Snowdrop Windflower

So far I've had a very positive experience with this plant (zone 5). It was a gift from a friend (from her garden). She had hers under ...Read Morea large tree and it was blooming wonderfully. I put one in full sun (harsh afternoon) and one in filtered sun (AM sun only) and the one with AM sun seems to be doing better. Both are fine, but the one with less harsh sun seems to be flourishing. I love the clumping form (very neat in appearance) and the delicate little flowers.

A long bloom in my garden ... though most of the bloom is early on, it blooms from April to November. Needs a bit of room to spread.

I like this simple little flower and the puff-ball that follows it. In Colorado it reseeded itself but was not invasive for me. Here in S...Read Morealem, MA I've been nursing along one teeny plant for several years, and it hasn't spread at all. I think I'm going to harvest some seeds and try to propagate in trays.

I have grown this plant in bright shade for four years.

I would not choose it again for anywhere unless it was an area where there is nothing else..

I'm not normally too excited about white flowers, but these are really pretty. I've been told that if I leave the flowers on, they will ...Read Moreself-seed and produce more -- and I would love for that to happen. This is a really nice flowering perennial for the shade. Update Spring 2011 - I see a couple more of these coming up, so they do self-seed, but so far nothing more than I would have wanted. Also, even after they finish blooming, the foliage remains attractive all season.

I planted these in a dry spot under canopy. Partial shade. No rainfall and I never water them. Yet e...Read Morevery year they flower and spread further, almost invasive.

Do not handle with gloves, in my opinion these sting worse than nettles if touched.

I've heard it goes dormant in summer, but mine don't, even the ones growing in hot sun.

It spreads by underground stolons: little plantlets appear about a foot away from the mother plant. I recommend restraining the plant when you first get it, or it will spread over a large area in just a few years.

Bright shade is working for me with this plant; having fall rebloom now.

I have always wanted this plant and finally started a big bunch from Wsd seed in 2007. They bloomed this year, but I was so disappointed...Read More by where I planted them..next to some late blooming white daffodils with a small yellow cup. You can't tell where the Anemones start and the daffodils end. LOL! I was very surprised that the flowers really stand up and above and away from the foliage.

If you ever grow these, put them where the white flowers will really stand out and be counted! They are lovely!
