|
Achillea chrysocoma |
Bright Yellow Native to the Balkan peninsula, in mountain grassland. |
Plate-like |
July |
8-12 x 12 |
Bipinnat -isect leaves of bright Green |
Excellent cut flower in fresh or dry arrangements. To dry, cut and hang upside down in a dark area with good ventilation. Companions - Asiatic lilies, eryngium, salvia, ornamental grasses, rudbeckia, phlox, phygelius, dahlia, hemerocallis. |
Moist, well-drained poor soil is best to avoid plants flopping, Sand or Chalk in full Sun. |
Achillea |
Adiantum pedatum Hardy to -37 degrees Centigrade (-35 degrees Fahrenheit), Grows in North America, Central and Eastern United States, Canada, Alaska, North India, Japan and eastern Asia. "Zones 3-8 native to North America and East Asia, the 8-20 forked pinnate leaf segments are in a horse-shape arrangement from the central stalk" from University of Vermont |
Ferns do not have flowers, but they do produce spores |
|
Clump form |
12-24 x 12-18 Spacing 10 (25) Easy to grow as long as the soil is loose and rich. |
Dainty, bright green fronds are held aloft on shiny black stems. The fronds are in clusters from the clump-forming rhizome. Brighter light will reduce the size of the fronds but full sun does not make for a happy plant! It is content in gardens from Zone 2 (where it is clearly one of the most ornamental options) to Zone 9 |
The fronds are in clusters from the clump-forming rhizome. Dainty, bright green fronds are held aloft on shiny black stems, creating a light, airy texture in the woodland garden. In rich soil and bright shade it will spread by shallow rhizomes to form a dense groundcover. Found in the humus-rich woodlands and moist woods of Eastern North America. |
They have extremely delicate fronds. This as well as tougher more sturdy ferns are decorative in varied arrangements - in a long solid line or in a deep and wide group or in twos or threes or even singly. |
Adiantum A. venustum, |
Adonis annua |
16 x 6 Buttercup Family |
An arable weed of dry soils on chalk and limestone, also recorded from tracks, chalk pits and other disturbed habitats. Seed production is low but there is a long-lived soil seed bank. Most populations are small and restricted to field edges. Poisonous to livestock. |
Annual Herb pollinated by bees. |
Adonis in |

Anemone coronaria |
Red, Blue or White |
4 petalled star shape bloom |
Mar-Jun Spreading. Where soil is not moist, soaking the tubers in lukewarm water for about 24 hours will speed start of growth. Once started, plants must be given adequate moisture until flowering is past and foliage begins to die down. |
Natural habitat is sandy soil enriched by leaf mould in established woodlands, where they receive both full sun and part shade. |
Dark Green Plant tubers 3 inches (7.5 cm) deep and spaced about 3 inches apart in bold drifts in Between June and August, lift and divide tubers after foliage has died down every 2 or 3 years. |
Well-drained Chalk, Sand Suitable Anemones for the Rock garden:-
|
Pans in Alpine House, Rock Garden. Must be given protection of frames or greenhouses in colder areas. Companions:- |
Anemone See further details about Anemones in Allium Anemone Gallery. My suggestion for Anemones in the UK: Plant in 6 inch (15 cm) pot and plunge in outside bed after frost has passed, let them flower and then lift them and place in cold frost-free greenhouse during the winter without watering them. |
Anemone hupehensis |
White, Pink or Purple The whites look hand-some with lots of green foliage. Combine with spring bulbs because the leaves emerge late. |
Clump and |
Aug-Sep |
36-48 x 18 (90-120 x 45) |
2-8 inch (5-20 cm) long, 2-6 inch (5-15 cm) wide basal Green leaves with lower surface pale Green |
Well-drained Acidic Sand is preferred - will tolerate fertile chalky soil. In China is native and naturalized on scrub, grassy slopes and streamsides in hill regions. |
Underplant Rosa glauca and fruit trees. Use on slopes and streamsides. Good Companions - Japanese anemones mix well with many vibrant autumn flowers, including Aster 'Little Carlow' and Aster laevis 'Calliope'. |
