It requires but little attention. For best effect, plant in masses. Culture—Anemones require a rich, loamy soil. Soak the roots in water for six hours previous to planting. This causes them to swell and enables one to distinguish the crown, which is readily discernible by the fibrous points at the top of the root, the bottom being quite smooth. A sunny place is best. Place a slight ridge around the bed so that the plants may be flooded with water. Plant any time from October to May. They bloom from February to July. Ea.
