How to Grow and Care for Double-flowered Anemone Seeds (Mixed Colors)
- Planting: Start seeds indoors 8–10 weeks before the last frost date. Soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours before planting to improve germination. Sow the seeds in well-drained, fertile soil and cover lightly. Maintain a temperature of 60–65°F (15–18°C) for germination. Once the seedlings are large enough and the frost risk has passed, transplant them outdoors.
- Soil Requirements: Anemones prefer well-drained, slightly acidic to neutral soil with a pH between 6.0 and 7.0. Rich, loamy soil with good organic matter ensures healthy growth.
- Spacing: Space plants about 6–8 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and prevent overcrowding.
- Watering: Water regularly, keeping the soil moist but not waterlogged. Anemones prefer consistent moisture during their growing season, but should not be overwatered.
- Temperature: These plants thrive in cooler climates, with temperatures between 55–65°F (13–18°C). They require full sun to partial shade for the best blooms.
- Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage more blooms. Fertilize with a balanced fertilizer in early spring and again after the first flush of blooms to support continued growth.
