The Native Plant Store can Now be Found Here

  • This page will remain accessible as a library page until I have all the species moved to the new page and all the quirks worked out in the new software so it can function as a searchable library.
  • Please see the Using the Plant Library  page  for some tips on how to make the most of the information in this existing library to select species for creating a healthy native plant community suited to the conditions of your site.

Anemone parviflora, Small-flowered Anemone

~Didn't receive seeds for this one last fall. I'll likely offer them again in coming years, as the plants I have mature and set seed~

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
