The Thompson and Morgan Anemone Coronaria Meron Bordeaux bulbs are perfect for gardeners looking to add deep, dramatic color to their spring landscapes, offering a sophisticated look that works beautifully in both outdoor borders and indoor bouquets. These perennial tubers deliver striking maroon blooms with near-black velvet petals and vivid purple centers, providing a high-impact visual display on a compact 40 to 50cm frame. While these bulbs are remarkably easy to manage, they require well-drained soil to thrive, as they are susceptible to rot if left in standing water during the dormant or growing phase.
