Flower of the Month




























Japanese Anemone has been my favourite flower this month. It makes a lovely plant to have in the garden but they are also stunning in floral arrangements. They look beautiful through all stages of flowering. From the rounded bud to the delicate full bloom through to the ball left when the petals have dropped.

































There are many different varieties of the Japanese Anemone that come in white and varying shades of pink. My personal favourite are the Honorine Jobert variety. The bright yellow stamens contrast the pure white petals that surround them. They grow up to 75cm tall, making them a perfect stand out plant in your garden, grouping them on their own or mixed in with other plants. The height is also why I love them as a cut flower; no restrictions on what I can do with them!


Just beautiful!!


Do you have a flower that you’ve been loving this month?
