The Japanese Anemone Honorine Jobert is often described as the best white variety available, I have to say it is quite spectacular.
We have four of these plants in the back garden and like so many of our other plants, they have been tucked in between other perennials in such a fashion, where they do flower every year, but oh how they would clump up more given the room.
Well anyway find the right spot for this one bearing in mind Japanese Anemones dislike being moved after becoming established, generally just sets them back a bit. Homorine Jobert is particularly good for lighting up a dark corner of the garden and is highly recommended as a good performing late Summer/Autumn flowering perennial.
As you can see the pictures which I have attached do indeed show sparse flowering and although they did go on to give a better show than this I never did catch it on the camera, well I would say that wouldn’t I, just wait I’ll show you!

Japanese Anemones tolerate most soils with a preference for humus rich and
