    Hi Mowgley.If they are Anemone Blanda or Anemone De Cann? You need to soak them overnight in water before planting them.Can't remember how deep so check your books.They are knarled and nobbly,and it is difficult to see the top from the bottom.We just dug a hole and popped them in and they flower every year

    Yes - should do. If you are in doubt about top and bottom, plant them on their side. Nature will sort things out.
