The Anemone are hardy herbaceous and tuberous-rooted perennials.
The anemones, or windflowers, to give them their popular name, may most conveniently be considered in three distinct groups-namely, the larger fibrous-rooted species suitable for the herbaceous border, tuberous-rooted kinds principally grown for bedding or to provide cut flowers, and dwarf kinds sometimes partially tuberous-rooted, which are most at home in the rock or wild garden. In the first group the most important species is Anemone japonica. The St. Brigid anemones and Anenome fulgens are good examples of the tuberous-rooted kinds, while Anenome apennina and Anenome blanda are representative of the rock garden or woodland types. Anenome Hepatica and Anenome triloba are dealt with under the name Hepatica.

Anenome japonica will grow in any ordinary garden soil and succeeds well in partially shaded positions. It may be planted with good results near large trees, providing it is not entirely cut off from light. Roots may be planted in October, March, or early April, but, once established, should not be disturbed unless absolutely necessary, as the plants resent transplanting. The tuberous-rooted anemones like a deep rich but well-drained soil and should be lifted annually as soon as the foliage dies down and stored in shallow trays in a cool place until planting time, which may either be September or October if early flowers are desired, or February or March for a later display.
A sunny, warm position is best for these anemones. The rock garden or wild garden species will thrive in any reasonably good and well-drained soil, but do best in one containing a liberal quantity of humus either in the form of well-decayed leaves or peat. These should be planted in early autumn or spring, and should not be lifted and dried like the tuberous-rooted species. Once established they can be left alone like Anenome japonica to increase annually and form wide drifts of colour.
Anenome japonica can be increased by division at planting time or by cuttings of the finer roots spread out in February in seed trays filled with sandy soil and covered with about ½ inch of the same compost. These cuttings should be started into growth in a cool greenhouse or cold frame. Seeds may be sown in a cold frame in March. The tuberous-rooted anemones can also be raised from seeds, which may either be sown in a warm greenhouse in January or February or in a sunny but sheltered border outdoors in July. The seeds should be lightly covered with sandy soil, and if sown thinly the seedlings can be allowed to stand in the seed beds until they have flowered. Indoor sown seedlings must, of course, be pricked out and gradually hardened off for planting outdoors.
Rock garden species are most readily increased by careful division at planting time, though seeds sown in a frame in March also offer a possible means of increase. The seeds of all anemones are somewhat susceptible to excessive moisture before germination, so should be sown in well-drained soil with which a certain amount of sand and leaf-mould has been mixed if it is naturally of a heavy nature.
