Comment |
Erect Form. Pruning Group 14. "Anemone are herbaceous perennials with fibrous, rhizomatous or tuberous rootstocks, palmately lobed leaves and saucer-shaped, usually 5-petalled flowers 'Honorine Jobert' is an herbaceous perennial with dark, divided leaves and pure white flowers with 6-9 tepals and contrasting yellow stamens. Will grow in any garden soil but avoid excessive winter wet, dislikes being moved around. Can spread rapidly once established." from Royal Horticultural Society. "A fabulous plant for brightening up the garden in late summer, this anemone grows in sun or shade and has masses of elegant, cup-shaped, white flowers on tall, wiry stems from August to October. The leaves are vine-like, dark green, and semi-evergreen. These single flowered Japanese anemones are one of the plants traditionally associated with Japanese gardens, where they're grown against dark rocks or in the shade of trees. Best in partial shade, they are perfect for lighting up a dark corner of the garden, or at the back of a herbaceous border." from Crocus. "The forebears of most Japanese anemones come from China, although Anemone vitifolia has a wide distribution in the wild, including Burma, Afghanistan and the Himalayas. It has been used extensively in breeding new hybrids and was one of the parents of the original Anemone x hybrida. Its genes are apparent in 'Honorine Jobert'. As well as rounded white flowers, the latter makes a hearty clump of dark-green, vine-like leaves. It also sets seed readily. Each seed head is a little sphere held at the end of a stem. As the heads ripen, they expand and their outer surface becomes soft. Eventually they erupt, each seed carried in its own woolly overcoat to pastures new. Although anemones can tolerate sunny positions, 'Honorine Jobert' shines in the shade. It is always easier to see and appreciate white flowers out of the glare of direct sun." from The Telegraph. Available from Crocus in the UK with Big Dipper Farm in America and MistyDowns in Australia. |

Companions |
"A dark-green backgound shows them off to perfection. A yew hedge is the perfect backdrop; privet, holly or a painted fence will also do very well. They look wonderful wandering among pale-blue or white lace-cap hydrangeas. Interplanted with early narcissi or among hellebores, they will allow their bedfellows to do their spring thing unchallenged and come to the peak of their own performance while the bulbs and hellebores rest." from The Telegraph. Other companions are Stipa gigantea, |
