CF-109Anemone De Caen Mix delivers a vibrant tapestry of single‑petaled blooms in brilliant shades of magenta pink, scarlet, violet, and pure white. Each flower is accented by a dark central eye that sharpens the contrast and gives the mix its lively, painterly quality. Plants grown from size 8+ corms typically reach 10–12 inches tall, producing elegant 2–3 inch flowers that create a colorful, high‑impact display in beds, borders, and cutting gardens. In zones 7–10, De Caen types can be planted in fall for late‑winter to early‑spring flowering. In cooler climates, they perform best when started indoors or planted in spring for summer blooms. They thrive in full sun to part shade and prefer well‑drained, humus‑rich soil. Pre‑soaking the corms before planting encourages strong root development and ensures a full, vibrant show.
