Description
Shake up your style with this gorgeous new Italian Anemone 'Mistral® Blu', quite possibly one of the most intense and vivid blues available, hightened with a subtle hint of mauve for extra oomph. Whether you grow flowers to pick for indoor arrangements or just to enjoy in the garden, this extra special variety is dressed to impress with large, luxurious richly-coloured petals, intriguing blue-black centre and fabulously long flowering time and vase life.
Grow these cool and classic blue Italian beauties in pots on a sunny patio or in clusters in the border for a vivid show from late spring onwards. Producing multiple blooms per plant, each generous plant provides plenty of flower power and, if you stagger your plantings into mid-summer, these floral delights will keep on coming right into autumn!
