How to Plant First Crush Mix Anemone Bulbs
When to Plant Anemone Bulbs
Zones 8-12 Plant in Autumn, Zones 2-7 Plant in Late Winter/Early Spring
Bulbs can be planted in Autumn or Spring depending on your zone and can be stored until you are able to plant. Make sure your bulbs do not get below 25 degrees or they could rot once they begin to thaw.
How to Store Anemone Bulbs
Anemones are shipped year-round in a dry, dormant state. If you are not ready to plant the dried corms, store them in this bag out of direct sunlight at room temperature for up to 8 months.
Where to Plant Anemone Bulbs
Plant anemone bulbs in well-draining soil. Choose a spot that receives full to partial sun.
How to Plant Anemone Bulbs
Before planting, soak your bulbs for a few hours in lukewarm water. DO NOT OVERSOAK. Dig holes that allow you to plant the anemones 1-2 inch deep, and 6-9 inch apart. Don't worry about which side of the bulb needs to point toward the surface as regardless of how the bulbs are positioned they will still grow. If planting indoors, it is important to make sure there are adequate drainage holes in your containers; anemones bulbs will rot if they sit in waterlogged soil.
Pre-sprouting anemones will allow your corms to bloom a few weeks earlier than normal. Soak corms in room-temperature water for three to four hours. Fill a flat-bottomed seed tray half-way with moist potting soil. Place corms in the tray and cover with more soil. Move the tray into an area that has consistent temperatures of 40 to 50°F for two weeks. Check the corms every three to four days to ensure the soil is moist, and remove any corms that show signs of rotting or molding. Once rootlets appear, it's time to plant!
How to care for Anemones
After planting, gently soak the soil. Roots will form in the autumn and in warmer zones, some foliage may also develop in the fall. Buds and flowers are produced in the spring.
Leave the foliage in place once blooming has ended for the season, be sure not to cut it off. The leaves will continue to gather sunlight and strengthen the bulbs for future seasons.
Leaves will yellow and die back as the plant goes dormant. Foliage may be removed at this point.
