The light purpley-pink flowers of Anemone x hybrida 'Elegans' appear on tall, elegant stems of up to 120cms tall, in July to October. As many as 20 flower heads appear, to create a sea of purpley-pink. Plant in a mixed herabaceous border to increase season of flowering interest. Anemone x hybrida 'Elegans' is good for use in a low allergen garden as it has very little pollen. Lift and divide in spring if it becomes too crowded.
