The Plant Store will re-open for sales the week of May 13th, 2024 for local pickup

  • Please see the Using the Plant Library  page  for some tips on how to make the most of the information here to select species for creating a healthy native plant community suited to the conditions of your site.
  • I'm currently working on shifting the store part of this site over to more complex software that will allow for filtering by multiple plant traits and making wish lists of species you would like to order, so please bear with me when it comes to announcing the exact species offerings for 2024 (there will be lots, including some species not previously offered).
Anemone parviflora, Small-flowered Anemone

Anemone parviflora

Small-flowered Anemone

  • Consistently moist areas, including gravely streambanks
  • Full sun
  • 6 to 10” tall, 6” to 8” spread
  • Early summer blooming, with sporadic reblooming
  • Native to Ontario, open meadow and rock garden settings

This small Anemone is a new introduction to the spaces I tend, grown from seeds from the Ottawa Wildflower Seed Library.

Described as a sub-arctic or alpine species and as having a preference for area with consistently available moisture, such as stream banks by the Missouri Botanical Garden, I suspect that these would co-exist well with Campanula rotundifolia and other small, clumping species that prefer not to be crowded by rambunctious neighbours. 

You can find more photos in their Missouri Botanical Garden profile

While it rarely comes up, I do reserve the right to limit plant quantities, mostly to help ensure that as many native plant gardens as possible become a reality
