How do we use your location?
Knowing your location helps us recommend plants that will thrive in your climate, based on your Growing Zone.
The daisy-shaped flowers of Anemone blanda offer cheerful blooms in early spring. Known commonly as windflowers, these wildflowers are native to Greece and adapt readily to dry climates in the United States, particularly the desert southwest. Plants prefer well-drained soil and will naturalize by both self-seeding and by tuberous rhizomes. If you want to pick anemone flowers, sear the stem ends in boiling water for 15 seconds and they'll hold their petals longer. Well suited to containers, transfer to the garden in fall.
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.

"I live in the southwest NM and didn't really think this would last a season. I planted it 2 years ago when we had an awful heat dome settle over us with temps in the 100's for over 2 months, and then again the following year. Most plants really struggled, even this little guy who amazingly survived. I do have it in an area shaded from the afternoon sun and regularly moist soil. Although it has remained small, it is covered with dark green foilage and that lovely blue flower flush in the spring, and again in the fall when it's cooler with even a few here and there throughout the season. I think it might do very well in a container."
"I planted these bulbs in a variety of locations in my yard, as directed. Not a single one even sprouted…"
