Botanical Name: Anemone × hybrida 'Königin Charlotte' ah-NEM-oh-nee ex HY-brid-ah Common Name: Japanese anemone Synonyms: A. × hybrida 'Queen Charlotte' Genus: Anemone

This beautiful, pale pink, semi-double-flowered anemone with notched petals grows to 4 feet tall and blooms from September to October.


Noteworthy characteristics:

Large, semi-double, pale pink flowers on tall stems.


Care:

Anemones thrive in light to partial shade but will tolerate full sun, as long as there is sufficient moisture. Site plants in moist, humus-rich soil, but avoid overly wet conditions. Apply mulch annually in northern regions.


Propagation:

Divide plants in early spring or propagate them by root cuttings in late fall or early spring.


Problems:

Japanese beetles and black blister beetles can be a problem, but neither is life threatening. Foliar nematode damage, which is difficult to recognize, will cause plants to slowly decline.
