Jerusalem Blue White Anemone Corms
Jerusalem Blue White Anemone are a smokey-pastel lavender inside, colored in a way that makes it seem they have been painted with a watercolor brush, set off with an opalescent navy center. The flowers vary from more-white to more-lavender, so you have a stunning variety of hues within each plant.
Anemones are one of our favorite plants to grow. They add an unexpected element to the spring garden with their enchanting colors, graceful shape, and modern silhouette. Each corm produces up to 20 flowers, so they make a big impact, too.
Anemone grow from corms, which are like little bulbs. Figuring out when to plant is a little tricky but don't worry, we'll talk you through it! Once you get them in the ground they really are not hard to grow.
Includes 20 corms in a cloth bag with planting instructions and a wooden label stake.

 How to Plant |
Soak your corms in room-temperature or cool water for 3-6 hours before planting. Allow a little trickle of water to run into the bowl as they rehydrate, or refresh the water every hour in order to increase the oxygen in the water (bad bacteria and mold spores like warm, oxygen deprived water). Plant immediately after soaking, 5" apart, 1-2" deep, with the pointy side of the corm pointing down. If you can't tell which way is down, just guess. They'll figure it out |
 Where to Plant |
Anemone like rich, well-draining soil. Supplement your dirt with compost or fertilizer when planting in the ground, or use fresh, quality potting soil for containers |
 When to Plant |
In warm zones (generally zones 7-10, 7 being the cusp), plant in the late fall for early spring blooms. If you live in a cold zone, with significant stretches of cold in the winter, (generally zones 6-2), plant in the late winter/very early spring instead, after your last hard frost. Corms can handle a brief, light frost, but will not survive if they are in temperatures below 30 degrees |
 When to Expect Blooms |
Fall planted corms bloom for about 8-10 weeks in the early spring, and spring-planted corms will blossom for about 6 weeks beginning in mid-spring. Blooms arrive generally 90 days after planting |
 Care Instructions |
Water regularly once the foliage emerges, and pick the flowers regularly to encourage more blooms. (Bring the flowers in! Make bouquets! Have fun!) And ask us any questions along the way |

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
Ask a Question-
I live in zone 6B. Do I have to bring the corms inside for the winter?
Hi there! Yes, if you have hard winters we recommend that you dig them up and store them!

I live in Vermont, and our expected final frost date is not until the end of May. Can I start the corms in a pot and sprout them inside and then when it is safe plant them in the ground? I have always wanted to grow anemone and ranunculus, but I was unsure if I could without a greenhouse!
Hi there! The best thing to do would be to store the corms in a cool dry place until spring. They are dehydrated and dormant, so they will be happy to wait until it is spring planting time in Vermont!
