I spotted this Anemone the other day and I reckon it looks lovely.
I also noticed that Cally Gardens have it listed in their catalogue and I will be visiting there this weekend. Fingers crossed they have some in stock.
Anyone here growing it? What conditions does it need?

I am always suspicious when I see stuff growing out of grit!! :)

Ach! It's just a very pretty mulch Charlie!
That shot is from Cally Gardens and it isn't one of the driest areas of the country.
If Michael is around when I visit I will ask him.

Well Cally Gardens didn't have any in stock, so I couldn't buy one.
I did buy some other goodies though :)

I bought:
Anemonopsis macrophylla
Pachyohragma macrophyllum
Paris quadrifolia
Omphalodes verna
Disporopsis aspera
2 different kinds of Polygonatum - one Russian with quite rounded leaves - odoratum ‘Ussuriland Roundleaf’
Aconitum Barker's variety - I want some late blue in my garden and these plants make quite a bold statement IMO (why not try this, or similar, as a cottage-type garden plant?)
Dierama jucundum
Euphorbia nicaeensis
Helleborus 'mixed seedling' - grown from locally collected seed and it had particularly long leaves with an extra division in them
Roscoae purpurea
Parahebe perfoliata - Dark Form - it has leaves like a Eucalyptus!
