Anemone coronaria Harmony Series - Orchid
Common Name: Grecian Windflower, Poppy Anemone
The huge, brilliantly colored blossoms of these anemones will blow you away! We certainly were when we saw the 2 ½ - 3 ½ inch wide blossoms on fuzzy stems atop these cute dwarf plants.
Harmony Series-Orchid produces huge 3”, lavender pink buds open to medium pink flowers with a deep plum purple button center.
The bright green, parsley-like foliage emerges early in spring and the plants bloom quickly before the heat of summer arrives. By summer, they typically go dormant until the following spring. Though they are hardy in warmer zones, most people grow them as spring annuals.
These anemones would be perfect for spring dish gardens and combo containers paired with Dianthus, pansies, or Bellis. They make a terrific pot crop for holiday sales like Valentine’s Day, Easter, and Mother’s Day.
