Anemone blanda 'Blue Shades'

 

Winter Windflower 'Blue Shades'

Anemone blanda is a low-growing plant that bears small, daisy-like flowers. They are excellent for planting with early flowering bulbs as they help hide the spent foliage. Can also be planted under deciduous shrubs and trees. Anemone blanda 'Blue Shades' (mix ) has attractive blue and blue-purple daisy-like flowers offset by lacy foliage.
