About This Plant

Anemone sylvestris (Snowdrop Windflower), 'Snowdrop Windflower', is valued for seasonal interest and the role it plays in PNW garden borders.

Anemones range from spring-blooming wildflowers (A. nemorosa) to fall-blooming Japanese Anemones (A. hybrida). Graceful saucer flowers in white, pink, or purple.

Part shade to full sun suits this species. Plant in moist, well-drained, humus-rich soil. Hardy USDA Zone 4 to 8. Spreads by rhizome. Provide consistent moisture for fall-blooming types.

For a Pacific Northwest native perennial of similar character, consider Aquilegia formosa (Western Red Columbine), Tellima grandiflora (Fringecups), or Dicentra formosa (Pacific Bleeding Heart) , all support native pollinators.
