It is an Anemone hupehensis - common name Japanese anemone. Hardiness Zone 4a to 8 - acidic soil. They are a late summer flower and come in white, pale pink, and a deep pink. Once you have an established plant it will spread rapidly but is so pretty that I do not mind.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-73540645370259585822013-12-16T09:08:37.613+00:002013-12-16T09:08:37.613+00:00I like the sound of that Loi - I had a lovely pink...I like the sound of that Loi - I had a lovely pink poinsettia last year.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-16191537042948044572013-12-16T09:07:23.490+00:002013-12-16T09:07:23.490+00:00You are right Jane - a touch of pink can do wonder...You are right Jane - a touch of pink can do wonders to make something more feminine.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-86995345186229752962013-12-16T09:05:54.100+00:002013-12-16T09:05:54.100+00:00Hope that you are 'in the pink' ready for ...Hope that you are 'in the pink' ready for Christmas Patricia.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-29661665907117074952013-12-16T05:20:01.692+00:002013-12-16T05:20:01.692+00:00I just love pink..very creative postI just love pink..very creative postsharonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02529895941009940357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-86121093148880225452013-12-16T03:20:40.978+00:002013-12-16T03:20:40.978+00:00Raising my glass of pink champagne to you, Rosemar...Raising my glass of pink champagne to you, Rosemary, for this post of glorious pinkness. I love pink - but then you already know that! Very pretty photos, and I love the ribbons and silk flowers, and the Japanese blooms, which we know as cosmos. I am trying to grow them at the moment, with mixed success. The Dickens quote is an interesting oddity but then he liked to play around with words too.
