Adonis amurensis 'Chichibu Beni' with some more flowers open.
Adonis amurensis 'Fukurokuju'
From the Adonis in the garden the flowerbuds are pushing up in the soil, I hope the snails leave them alone.

Very nice Herman. Do you grow them in pots or in the open garden?

Ashley, these two stands in pot.

Great looking plants. What soil do you use in pots?

It is a mix of leave compost, seramis and perlite. So I get airy soil.

Herman, thank you for your reply. I talked to Mr. Peters, a German Nursery Man, who used to import Adonis cultivars from Japan, he told me that in Japan Adonis cultivars are grown in pots in Akadama. What is your opinion ?

I don’t use it, but I am not a specialist in Adonis. I believe that it is also used for the soil of special Hepatica japonica. I also don't know if there is much difference between seramis and akadama.

Thank you Herman. Can you recommend any EU commercial sources?

Ashley, my Adonis come mostly from plants markets or exchanging. Edrom nursery has a good collection for sale.

Thank you Leena. I hope the flowerbuds in the garden survives all the rain that still has to come during next week.

"Ranunculus crithmifolius has a curious seed feature where pedicels of the ripening fruit bend downwards between the leaves and push into the loose gravelly scree. A check yesterday in one of my specimen pots shows this activity."
Fascinating how ingenious plants can be about getting their seed sown, isn't it? !
-

Yes and it can last more than one month.
-
Thank you Yann - some nice colour for the dull days now!

Adonis in the garden seems to recover well from the cold period. Next weekend the weathermen predict 17°C! What a difference.

Leena, he stands in the greenhouse and is alright. But I have in the garden another orange form and the buds are emerging now.

Patrick, here in our garden is nothing to see of it. It is not an easy one, so good work!
-
Thanks Hermann!
What do you think why it is so tricky to cultivate it longer. I don´t know if it is good to let the plant the whole year outside...?

Patrick, I don’t know the reason. Maybe our winter is too wet.

Anemone pavonina from SRGC seed, sown 27.1.19. A lovely thing, incredibly vibrant shade of red which calls to you right across the garden.

(a riposte to those who say double flowers are not attractive to wildlife - this is obviously attractive as a double bed to honeymooning couples!)
