Anemone bulbs
Anemone bulbs can be planted in autumn as well as in spring. Anemones are delicate bulbous flowers, some species of which naturalise. They flower both in spring and summer. They come in red, pink, blue, purple and white and grow up to 30 cm high. There are single and double-flowered anemones. The bulbs of anemones look like small, hard, dark-coloured tubers.
