Common Name: Anemone-Snowdrop
Zones 3 to 8.
Full sun to part shade.
Plants reach 12 to 15 inches tall and 12 to 18 inches wide;
rapid, not aggressive, growth; spreads by creeping rhizomes.
In late spring, pure white, 2-inch flowers, bloom above attractive dark green, divided foliage. Blossoms leave behind white, wooly seed heads as they fade.
Anenome sylvestris grows best in loose, sandy loam soils and part shade. It will tolerate more sun, if ample moisture is available. After the Snowdrop Anemone blooms, shear it back to the basal foliage to stimulate additional blooms.
