‘Rosea’ Rue Anemone (Anemonella thalictroides ‘Rosea’): Pink Cupped Flowers Over Long Spring Season

‘Rosea’ rue anemone (Anemonella thalictroides ‘Rosea’) is a tuberous perennial native to eastern North American woodlands. Pink, fragile, cup-shaped flowers on slender stems bloom from spring to early summer—a long season for a spring wildflower. Often goes dormant in summer. Use in shady rock gardens, woodland gardens, or as underplanting in shady shrub borders.

Care

• Light: Part shade.
• Soil: Moist, moderately fertile, rich; avoid very wet soils.

Propagation & Problems

Sow seed in containers in cold frame as soon as ripe. Divide young plants in early spring. Powdery mildew, leaf smut, rust, slugs.
