Anemone blanda

oh, nice! another one to go on my "want" list - the name makes it sound a woodland plant, so I'll have to create a woodland to put it in!

Stunning colour :)

Thanks both It is a woodland plant Fran it grows under my cobnut trees ....

I love anemones. I shall be keeping an eye out for some to plant under my hedge. Fran, there are loads of different kinds....some real treasures.

I just love anything blue!

Our mini ones are flowering in the alpine sink. Such a beautiful blue isn't it?

what oritentation does it have? I mean, which direction-facing? I;ve got shrubs all over, and I might be able to find a direction it likes ...

Thanks everyone they are sweet little flowers , Mine are facing west Fran but I think anywhere sheltered near or under shrubs should be o.k they like the sun they turn their heads to face it ....

thanks, Amy, that's very helpfu. Oh, if I could put my dreams on pper, and then translate that into rality, there'd be a Magic Wood here!

TRhat is really pretty such a lovely intense blue!

Ooh yes, that's gorgeous Amy very lovely!

Beautiful flowers ...

Lovely Amy...... mine are a little behind yours nearly there though :-) and a few seedlings this year.

I love this shade of blue as well..you have some lovely colours in your garden just now Amy..it must look so colourful..x

I love mine. Like you said Amy, love the way they face the sun and turn around during a sunny day. Mine seem to be spreading nicely.

Thank you they are a pretty blue like yours mine are spreading Dawn about a sq.metre now , funny thing is I'm finding the odd plant in other areas of the garden ,I expect we dig something up from one place transplant it in another taking a portion with it !

Great Amy. Its nice to have them around, I like these small bulbs, they are no trouble and die down until next Spring.

As I don't like daisy like flowers it's strange that I like these enough to have started a good sized colony going! No idea why I make an exception for them, but they are nice!

It's the colour Meanie it cheers you up and makes you think of blue skys !

Not sure about that as nine are mostly white!

Lol .. Trust you to be different :o)) I have a couple of whites I don't know where they came from !

perhaps most daisies are "tame" flowers, these are wild and free ...

I'm still waiting for mine to flower Amy !

The white is the wood anemone, Anemone nemorosa, i woud love a carpet amongst my trees. Have bout 5 lol
