Anemone x lipsiensis are part of the buttercup family Ranunculaceae and are a British native. They will thrive in lightly shaded areas with a well-drained soil. In its natural habitat this plant grows under deciduous trees, flowering before the trees come into leaf so is a perfect low growing plant under trees and shrubs and look particularly impressive when planted in drifts. Becoming dormant in the Summer, they then overwinter as slender rhizomes just beneath the soil surface. For more information please see the RHS website as follows:-
