The White Splendor Windflower Anemone provides an abundant supply of well-formed, white-petaled daisies with delicate light yellow eyes. This gorgeous plant blooms in the first year that it is planted and flowers from mid-spring to early summer in a thick mass of white and yellow blossoms. These blooms stand proudly above the long leaf, green foliage on sturdy, 12-inch stems.
White Splendor Windflower Anemone is a low-maintenance, fast-growing plant with a low mounding habit. It grows only to a height of 6 inches and a width of 12 inches. This plant adores full sunlight and normal or loamy soil that is moist and well-drained.
White Splendor is an excellent plant for a garden bed or border. To create a thick carpet of white and yellow groundcover, place each plant 9 inches apart and watch it carpet the area. This plant is also lovely as a container plant and complements other flowers very well with its white providing a beautifully dramatic background for colorful daffodils, tulips and hyacinths.
With Wayside's bulbs, growing gorgeous flowers is as easy as Dig, Drop, Done.
Dig:
The first thing you want to do is pick your spot and dig the hole for your bulbs. Avoid places with standing water, as this could cause bulb rot. A good rule of thumb when planting is to dig down 3 times the height of the bulb, but you should follow the specific instructions for your bulb. Make sure to space out your bulbs to give your plants the right amount of room to grow later.Drop:
Now put your bulbs in the ground, pointy side up. For fall planting, be sure to get the bulbs in before the first frost. For spring planting, the time varies by plant. Afterwards, cover the bulbs with soil and then water them in. This helps wake the bulbs up from dormancy and get them growing again.Now you're Done!
Just sit back and wait, and in the spring your bulbs will sprout up and reward you with their beautiful blooms throughout the season. Growing flowers from Wayside bulbs really is that easy!Videos courtesy of the Dig Drop Done Foundation.
