Anemone coronaria produces wide, poppy-like blooms in jewel colours, each with a ring of dark stamens around an almost black centre.

Unsoaked corms come up slowly and unevenly; soaked ones are usually through the soil within two weeks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow long can I soak them for?\u003c\/strong\u003e Three to four hours. Beyond about six hours they take up too much water and are prone to rot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre they good for cutting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Very. Cut when the bloom is half open and it will finish opening indoors, lasting six to eight days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCan they grow in pots?\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes. Eight-inch pots, five corms to a pot, with drainage holes and a gritty mix.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAre these bulbs or seeds?\u003c\/strong\u003e These are living bulbs, corms or tubers — not seed. They flower in their first season, months sooner than the same plant grown from seed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I store them before planting?\u003c\/strong\u003e Somewhere cool, dry and dark with air around them. A paper bag in a cupboard is ideal; a sealed plastic bag is not, because trapped moisture causes rot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eNew to bulbs?
