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

Japanese anemone are a long-lived, fibrous-rooted perennial with lovely single or multi-petaled flowers in late summer to early fall, depending on the cultivar. Its habit is upright, with the flowers appearing on long stems held over the foliage. Foliage is green, a little crinkly, and lobed. Flower colors include white, pink, and rose. Once established, it spreads as long as the roots remain undisturbed. Nice in shady perennial or shrub borders; a lovely cut flower. Grows about 2 to 4 feet tall, and about half as wide (depending on the cultivar) but it will spread with time.
