Anemone 'Dainty Swan'
This elegant Japanese anemone showcases an enchanting display of nodding flowers that dance gracefully in the late summer breeze. Reaching a mature height of 60-70 cm, Anemone 'Dainty Swan' produces single blooms in a captivating shade of silvery-pink, each petal backing delicately brushed with violet-purple hues. The flowers feature a centre crown of golden stamens, creating a striking contrast against their softer outer petals.
The plant's dark green, maple-like foliage provides an attractive presence throughout the growing season, forming a neat clump that serves as a perfect backdrop for the blooms. Flowering commences in late summer and continues well into autumn, offering welcome colour when many other perennials are beginning to fade.
'Dainty Swan' performs beautifully in partial shade to full sun, preferring rich, moisture-retentive soil. Its refined appearance makes it particularly suited to woodland gardens, mixed borders, or cottage garden settings, where its graceful presence can be fully appreciated.
