COMMON: Japanese anemone, Windflower. BLOOM HEIGHT LIGHT ZONE Early September to October 4 ft. x 5 ft. Bright or filtered shade 5 - 8 September - White COMMENTS: This anemone has been in gardens since the mid-nineteenth century and continues to be one of the most popular Japanese anemones. It can be slow to establish but once mature it blooms prolifically, and clumps will not need dividing for many years. When division is required, lift and divide in the spring. Propagation can also be done by root cuttings. It grows best in well-drained soil amended with organic matter and will tolerate partial full sun, especially morning sun. This is not a cultivar of A. hupehensis, but a hybrid of A. hupehensis var. japonica x A. vitifolia. It is far less disease prone than A. hupehensis.
