Plant of the Day
Monday 30 March 2020
These Anemone blanda (Balkan anemone, Grecian windflower, winter windflower) have been flowering for the last three weeks. This spreading, tuberous-rooted perennial is native to southeastern Europe and thrives in the free drainage conditions of my gravel driveway where the plants have seeded. There is a range of the depth of blue in the flowers and this has occurred as the plants have crossed with the white flowered cultivar Anemone blanda ‘White Splendour'.
