Anemone coronaria 'Sylphide' is the most lovely brilliant magenta-pink with beautiful velvety petals. – fantastic with acid green.
I saw fields and fields
of these beautiful, tall anemones in the most
wonderful velvety single colours all over Crete last spring. I realised how much hardier they are than I had thought.
These are one of the most prolific flower-producers you can grow, giving buckets of cut flowers from planting both inside and out.
