Anemone blanda Seeds (Grecian Windflower)

The Grecian Windflower, scientifically known as Anemone blanda, is a vibrant early spring bloomer. It features delicate, daisy-like flowers with bright petals in shades of white, pink, purple, or blue, radiating around a bright yellow center. Commonly referred to as Balkan anemone or winter windflower, it grows from corms and reaches a height of around 6-8 inches. Grecian Windflowers are hardy perennials that thrive in USDA hardiness zones 4 to 8. Anemone blanda seeds are readily available and can be sown in the fall to enjoy their charming display of flowers in early spring.

Germinating Grecian Windflower Flower Seeds

To germinate Anemone blanda, soak the seeds in warm water for 24 hours to soften their outer coating. Sow the seeds in well-draining soil, ensuring they’re barely covered. Keep the soil moist and maintain a temperature of 60-68°F (15-20°C) until germination occurs in 2-4 weeks.
