Mistral Tigre Anemone Plants
Back by popular demand - now, in plant form! That's right - we pre-sprouted these tricky corm-y guys and grew them into hardy young plants, ready to ship, land in your garden, and get right to blooming. 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 plant produces up to 20 flower. Fresh cut flowers for everyone!
Italian Mistral Tigre Anemone blooms are a striking rosy-red and white bi-color bloom, with each plant producing a bushel of blooms that are all colored differently, with brush strokes of red on glossy white petals. A mistral is a cold wind in the south of France, and Anemone are called wind flowers, so its wind on wind plus a tiger...power bloom.
Includes three young plants, grown in 2.5” diameter pots.

How to Plant | Dig a hole twice the size of the root ball. Fill a little bit of the loose dirt back into the hole and tuck your plant in so the base of the stem is even with the top of the hole. Now fill in the rest of the soil around the roots, give the soft ground around the base of your new plant friend a few solid pats to compress the soil onto the roots, and a long, gentle drink of water |
Where to Plant | Find a place that gets a decent amount of sun, in well draining soil |
When to Plant | Avoid the heat of the day when planting — plant in the early morning, late afternoon, or by the light of the moon. Plant outside after your average last frost in the spring |
When to Expect Blooms | Mid to late spring |
Care Instructions | Water regularly until they get established, and then give them extra water during dry spells |
Extra Credit | After the blooming season, you can dig up, dry, and store your corms to plant next year. Learn more about growing Anemone on our Plant Care page |
