The Garden Magic Online Shop Planting and caring for anemones

You don't need a garden of your own to grow your own anemone; this plant also thrives in pots. Use high-quality potting soil and clean the pots thoroughly with a pot brush to remove any old plant debris or soil that can harbor fungi and germs. A sturdy planting shovel is also helpful.

To ensure optimal germination and growth, the anemone bulbs should first be soaked in water for five hours and then placed in potting soil until they sprout. Ideally, this occurs at around 15 degrees Celsius and takes approximately two weeks. Once the anemones have sprouted, they should be transplanted into loose, humus-rich soil, additionally enriched with compost, at a depth of about 5 to 7 cm. Choose a sunny to partially shaded location with well-drained soil and keep it evenly moist. Avoid waterlogging at all costs.

Generally, anemone flowers bloom about 3-4 months after planting and remain in bloom for about 4-6 weeks. Early-planted specimens have longer flowering times and longer stems than later-planted ones. Garden anemones are less sensitive to frost and require little care. However, at temperatures around -4°C, they should be protected with fleece.

When can I plant anemones?

The anemone bulbs can be planted in early spring or fall (ideally about 4-6 weeks before the first frost). This gives them enough time to establish themselves before winter sets in. At temperatures below -4 degrees Celsius, they should be protected with fleece or other covering. You can find more information in our Anemone 101 .

Where do anemones thrive?

Anemones thrive in a sunny to partially shaded location with well-drained, humus-rich soil and consistent soil moisture. Heavy clay soils that tend to become waterlogged should be improved with sand to increase permeability. You can find more information in our Anemones 101 .

How do I care for anemones?

A light application of a balanced fertilizer in spring can promote growth and flowering. Avoid excessive fertilizer, as this can lead to excessive leaf production. You can extend the flowering period by regularly removing faded flowers.

How do I harvest anemones as cut flowers for bouquets?

Pruning anemones is straightforward because they have long, branchless stems. It's best to prune them when the buds are still slightly closed. These open during daylight and close again at night. Therefore, it's recommended to harvest in the morning or evening to avoid damaging the open petals.

How long do anemones last in a vase?

Anemones last comparatively long in a vase, between six and eight days. Like tulips, anemones stretch a little further in a vase. The stems may bend overnight, but they will remain straight if they are placed upright in a taller vase or tied in bunches: once under the flower heads and once at the stem ends.
