Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A curiosity; white flowers with a wheel of little leaf-like green petals in the center. Spreading, easy to grow "filler" for the woodland garden or in front of a shady border. Prefers moist, humusy soil but tolerates drier soil in summer as they are then

A bewitching Wood Anemone which is more petite than some clones. This makes a dense carpet sample of coarse ferny foliage and small white flowers with a purplish reverse. Big deal, huh? Well, kinda - the floral genitals have gone thickly, greenly and happily staminode. Cue Barry White.
