{"product_id":"col-bulb-ane-bla-cha-50","title":"Anemone blanda 'Charmer' (Grecian Windflower) – Deep Pink Spring Flowering Windflower (Bag of 50 Bulbs)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBring a sweep of soft, rosy-pink colour to your spring garden with Anemone blanda 'Charmer', the Grecian windflower. You get 50 dry tubers in a bag, ready to plant. They are dry tubers, not growing plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe photos show the flowers in bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe daisy-like, deep pink flowers appear in early spring and make a low carpet of colour that pairs beautifully with early bulbs such as snowdrops, crocuses and dwarf daffodils. The blooms close at night and on dull days, then open wide in sunshine to show their clear pink petals and pale centres. The leaves are deeply cut, mid-green and fern-like.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is an easy variety that spreads slowly into larger clumps over time. It suits borders, rockeries and woodland edges, and it is ideal for underplanting trees and shrubs. It is fully hardy in Britain, and it will also grow in a container where your garden soil is unsuitable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSoak the dry tubers in water for a few hours before planting to help them establish. Plant them in groups about 5-8cm deep in autumn. It is hard to tell which way up they go, so if you are unsure, plant them on their side. Choose well-drained soil in sun or dappled shade. Once established they need very little care. The leaves die down after flowering and the tubers rest through summer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBulbs are harmful if eaten. Keep away from children and pets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCultural Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Grecian Windflower, Windflower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e Anemone blanda\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFully Grown Height and Spread:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approx. 10-15cm tall and 10-15cm wide\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low-growing, spreading, clump-forming\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerfect For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Borders, rockeries, woodland gardens, underplanting and naturalising\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFoliage:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deeply cut, mid-green, fern-like leaves\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn (September to November)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Depth:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5-8cm deep\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlowering Time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Early to mid spring (February to April)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFlower Colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Deep rose-pink with a pale reverse and yellow centre\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlanting Position:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full sun to partial shade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Well-drained, moderately fertile soil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardiness:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fully hardy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardy spring-flowering tuber\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Verdant Living","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68152660033756,"sku":"COL-BULB-ANE-BLA-CHA-50","price":16.49,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0646\/2455\/8300\/files\/file_8baead08-7dd5-43bf-be8c-acc9d5fe87b9.png?v=1794155071","url":"https:\/\/www.verdant-living.co.uk\/products\/col-bulb-ane-bla-cha-50","provider":"Verdant Living","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
