Anemone coronaria Blanda Blue Shades is also known as Grecian windflower due to the Greek for "daughter of the wind". It is a RHS award-winning bloom. The violet cup-shaped flowers with a bright yellow/green centre offer a stunning addition to the front or centre of any border. The fernlike foliage perfectly complements the beautiful blooms especially when growing in an attractive container. Planted in June-July this hardy perennial creates early colour in the garden in February or March. Anemones are easy to maintain as long as they are planted in well-drained but moist soil. They enjoy full sun and prefer to be sheltered from wind. The corms naturalise easily and create drifts of violet colour for years to come. Blanda Blue Shades is a short anemone but is sure to bring plenty of spring cheer. These flowers are perfect to use as cut flowers and will bloom again once cut.
