Grapeleaf Anemone

Albadura grapeleaf anemone is a delightful late summer and early fall perennial. A mound of large maple-like leaves in summer produces airy spikes 3.5 feet tall, topped with white flowers with a blush of pink. In the center of each flower is a pale green disk surrounded by a ring of yellow stamens. The flowers are slightly smaller than the more commonly cultivated Japanese anemones, but nine to 12 flowers can appear on one stalk, as the tip divides into three and then three again. This plant does well in light shade, protected from the hot sun. It has a delicate rhizome, and takes time to become established.
