Anemone 'Honorine Jobert'

Anemone-Japanese

An excellent plant for late season sales and shade perennial collections. Single, clear white, 2-3" flowers are laden with golden yellow pollen that supports bee and butterfly populations in late summer. This stately heirloom perennial forms a basal clump of dark green leaves that are attractive all season.
