Anemone × hybrida 'September Charm' (Japanese anemone)
£6.89
Unit price perEstimated Delivery between January 10 and January 12.
Anemone × hybrida ‘September Charm’ is an RHS Award of Garden Merit Japanese anemone with softly cupped, rose‑pink flowers that open from late summer into autumn. It’s a gentle, luminous colour that lifts borders as the seasons change. Petals are slightly deeper pink on the reverse, so the flowers keep their colour as they sway.
Grow in full sun or partial shade in moderately fertile soil that stays moist but well‑drained. It’s ideal for the middle of a mixed border, where its wiry stems can rise through nearby plants without looking heavy. A spot with morning sun and a little later shade often keeps foliage at its best.
‘September Charm’ forms clumps and can spread once happy, making it useful for naturalistic planting and larger drifts. The flowers are also lovely in simple vase arrangements, especially with seed heads and grasses. It’s excellent with sedums, rudbeckias and grasses for a long‑season display.
Mulch in spring, water in dry weather, and avoid waterlogging in winter. Once established it’s resilient and will come back year after year with minimal fuss. If the clump expands too far, divide in spring and replant sections where you want them.
Cut stems back after flowering, or leave them standing for winter interest and tidy in spring. A pollinator‑friendly perennial for extending the season. It’s an easy way to keep borders looking fresh into autumn.

Arrived quickly and well-packaged. Planted them in some pots on the patio and they all came up. Look beautiful. Thank you!

The bulbs arrived beautifully packaged and you could just tell they were excellent quality. We had the most wonderful display of daffodils this spring on our patio. Simply stunning. Will definitely be ordering again

I ordered the mixed hyacinth collection and the scent in my garden this April was absolutely heavenly. Every single bulb produced a strong, beautiful flower and the colours were stunning together. A fantastic purchase, I'll be back for more next year!
