Anemone hupehensis var. japonica | Japanese anemone

This plant will not be available in 2026, however, propagation is planned/underway. Please sign up for the waitlist below to receive updates on availability in future years.

Anemone hupehensis var. japonica is a stunningly beautiful yet relatively rare Japanese anemone with pleasing rounded, creamy-pink flowers. This is a striking, tall plant that lights up the fall garden. 

Happiest in sun or part shade on moist, fertile soil. Spreads readily when happy. 

The name is a bit of a misnomer as this plant actually hails from Western China. Gardens Illustrated published a lovely article about the history and cultivation of Japanese anemones in their September 2024 issue.
