The planting time for anemones must be set so that the perennials have enough time to grow. Autumn anemones and other perennial forms only survive cold winters when they are at least two years old.
The best time to plant anemones
- Not hardy tubers: Spring
- Hardy bulbs: autumn
- Not hardy perennials: spring to early summer
- Hardy Perennials: Spring
To plant the bulbs, the ground must be frost-free, and the soil should not be too cold. You can plant hardy tubers in autumn. But make sure you have suitable winter protection.
Perennials should always be planted in spring. Anemones planted in the fall will not take root until it gets too cold.
tips and tricks
Cover hardy anemones with foliage, straw, or other dry material for the first year after planting. Without winter protection, anemones can only survive outdoors after one to two years.
