This listing is for the sale of corms, not flowers, which are like little bulbs in that all the energy of the plant is stored in one compact place.
🇫🇷 The "Meron" anemone series is a significant genetic improvement from the "Jerusalem" series with stronger, thicker stems and very high flower production.
Anemone "Bordeaux Vin" in French, or "Bordeaux Wine" in English, has velvety violet-colored flowers with purple-wine-colored centers. This maroon, almost black variety is one of the darkest anemones available.
