Anemone japonica Single Pink

Common Name: Japanese Anemone 'Single Pink'

Description:
Anemone japonica 'Single Pink' is a charming perennial that heralds the transition from summer to autumn with its profusion of pastel pink, single-petaled flowers adorned with bright yellow stamens. These delicate blooms are gracefully perched atop slender, wiry stems that sway gently with the breeze, creating a dynamic and enchanting display in the garden. The plant's dark green, deeply lobed foliage forms a dense, attractive mound at the base, providing a lush backdrop to the airy flower stems. In Melbourne's climate, 'Single Pink' thrives in moist but well-drained soils enriched with organic matter. It prefers a position in part shade, making it an excellent choice for illuminating darker garden areas or narrow spaces between buildings. Regular watering is essential, especially during dry spells, to maintain soil moisture and support vigorous growth. This low-maintenance perennial is well-suited to cottage gardens, mixed borders, and Japanese-inspired plantings, offering a long-lasting floral display with minimal care.
