Product Information

Full details

The Anemone St Brigid Doubles are ideal for home gardeners looking to add vibrant, silky-textured color to cottage gardens, patio containers, or garden borders from late spring through summer. These hardy tuberous perennials provide excellent cut flowers for indoor arrangements and are highly attractive to local pollinators, though they do require specific soil conditions such as excellent drainage to prevent rot during the dormant or growth stages.

FAQs

When should I plant Anemone St Brigid corms?

They are best planted in spring once the danger of hard frost has passed to ensure the soil warms up sufficiently.

Can I leave these bulbs in the ground over winter?

In milder climates, they can remain in the ground, but in colder areas, it is recommended to lift and store them in a dry, frost-free location.

How many bulbs should I plant per pot?

For a standard 30cm pot, you can comfortably plant 5 to 7 corms for a lush, full appearance.

Do I need to fertilize my anemones?

A light application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the start of the growing season can boost overall plant health and bloom size.

Are these plants toxic to pets?

Like many Anemone species, they can be toxic if ingested by cats or dogs, so keep planting areas monitored if pets are present.

Troubleshooting

Corms failing to sprout

Ensure the corms were soaked overnight and not planted too deep; check if soil has become waterlogged.

Yellowing leaves during growth

This is often a sign of overwatering; move to a location with better drainage or increase the sandy content of the soil.

No blooms produced

Check that the plants are receiving at least 6-8 hours of direct, full sun; shade will inhibit flower production.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High aesthetic appeal with silky, double-petal textures
  • Great for cut flower arrangements with long vase life
  • Compact size is perfect for pots and patio containers
  • Hardy perennial nature allows for repeat performance

Cons

  • Requires well-drained, light, sandy soil to prevent corm rot
  • Corms need overnight soaking before planting for best germination
  • Growth can be stunted in heavy, waterlogged clay soils

Setup, Compatibility & Care

  1. Pre-Planting Preparation: Soak the corms in lukewarm water for at least 12 hours before planting to rehydrate them.
  2. Soil Requirements: Use light, sandy, and well-drained soil. Avoid heavy clay that holds moisture.
  3. Planting Depth: Bury the corms approximately 5cm deep.
  4. Spacing: Aim for a 15cm spread between individual plants for healthy air circulation.
  5. Sunlight: Ensure the location receives full sun throughout the day.
  6. Watering: Maintain moderate moisture during the growing phase, but reduce watering as the foliage dies back post-flowering.
