Water Saving Tip:

Replace turf with groundcovers, trees, and shrubs. If you have areas where no one uses the grass, patches that do not grow well, or a turf area too small to water without runoff, consider replacing the turf with water-efficient landscaping.

  • Description

  • Notes

Alba' is a vigorous, fibrous-rooted, mounding, compact Japanese anemone hybrid cultivar, which typically grows to 3 to 4 feet tall and spreads nearly as wide by creeping rhizomes. Single flowers (as large as 2 to 3 inches across) with overlapping white petals and yellow center stamens appear on long, wiry-but-graceful, branching stems. Foliage is an attractive mound of lobed dark green leaves. Lengthy August to September bloom period. A wonderful addition to a shady border.
