Description

Wood Anemone Anemone nemorosa

Common names include, windflower, European thimbleweed and haymaid.

This is an early flowering perennial which grows from underground rhizomes covering the ground in large patches. The pretty white flowers of wood anemones resemble buttercups and can be found in deciduous woodlands and damp meadows in spring and early summer.  Perfect for planting in rock gardens, garden borders and containers, garden edges and under shrubs.

The wood anemone is a host plant of the larvae of butterflies such as the painted lady

Spring wildflower bulbs 'in the green' are supplied when they are actively growing. This can be a more reliable way to transplant wildflower bulb species than from dormant bulbs planted in autumn. Wildflower bulbs in the green can be easier to plant as it is clear where the bulbs have been planted.  In most cases, the plants will flower the following spring.

Our highest-quality wildflower and meadow bulbs are grown in the UK from British plants.
