Japanese anemones are slightly taller than the species, sometimes growing to 4 feet.

This perennial is beautiful in the woodland garden or border and planted in masses, although they can become weedy in some areas.
 Noteworthy characteristics: Taller than the species. Creamy pink flowers. Can be weedy or invasive.
 Care: Moist, fertile, humusy soil in sun or partial shade. May need support.
 Propagation:

Divide in early spring or after flowering; pot up for a year and replant in spring. Take root cuttings in spring. Sow seed in containers in a cold frame when ripe, but germination may be erratic and lengthy.

Caterpillars, slugs, flea beetles. Synchytrium leaf gall, downy mildew, leaf and stem smut, Septoria leaf spot, powdery mildew, and rust are all very common to Anemones, and viruses may also occur.

Boltonia asteroides Boltonia asteroides
(False chamomile) Be the first to rate this plant
Hardiness Zones: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

Boltonias are vigorous perennials grown for their sprays of aster-like flowers, which appear above clean, gray-green foliage. Their vigorous nature makes them suitable for naturalizing. They are also great in the border (and for cutting), but will benefit from frequent dividing to keep in bounds, and may be cut back in late spring for more compact plants.
