How to plant anemones?

Bloombol

Anemone bulbs can be planted in seed trays (for pulling), in pots or in the open ground. You can plant the bulbs in the fall or spring. If there is a chance of severe frost, it is better not to plant them until spring. For anemone bulbs it is important that you first soak the hard tubers in water overnight. The tubers are then softer and root faster. Anemones are low bloomers, making them perfect as ground cover. You will therefore also find anemones in our Bloombol mixtures. These fit perfectly into the mixtures.

Where can I plant anemones?

You plant anemones in a well drained, fertile, sandy and light soil. They do well in sheltered spots or between rocks.

How deep should you plant anemones?

You plant anemone bulbs about 7 cm deep. It is important that you do not plant them too deep, otherwise the vulnerable bulbs will not reach the surface.

How far apart should you plant anemones?

Anemone bulbs are planted with about 10 cm distance between each bulb. This way every plant can grow fully and you get a sea of ​​anemone flowers. Are you planting the anemones between other types of bulbs? Then you can keep more distance, about 30 cm.

How do you plant anemones in pots?

Do you have a terrace? Then it is nice to plant anemones in pots. You can plant the anemones alone, but combined with other summer bulbs make a lovely display. Anemones stay low, which gives a nice effect if you plant taller tulips with them.

First, fill the pot with potshards, shells or hydro granules for good drainage. A small layer is sufficient. It is also useful to have a few small holes at the bottom of the pot so that excess water can escape. Then fill the pot with potting soil to about 10 cm below the rim. Sprinkle the bulbs in the pot and then fill the pot up to the brim with potting soil. Water and voila!

If it freezes for a long period in the winter, put the pots in a shed or wrap the pots in bubble wrap. Frost can easily penetrate deep into a pot from several sides and damage the bulb.
