Origin and characteristics

The Anemone coronaria, also known as crown or river anemone, is native to the Mediterranean region. The Levante® series has been specially selected for its large flowers, strong stems, and compact growth, ensuring long-lasting beauty and making it suitable for both large borders and small gardens.

Features of Levante® Red:

  • Flower colour: intense red with a contrasting dark heart

  • Height: 25–30 cm, perfect for borders, pots or flower boxes

  • Flowering period: March – May (spring flowering)

  • Leaf: deep green, finely divided, forms an attractive base

The flowers are weather-resistant and retain their shape and colour, making them ideal as cut flowers for bouquets and table decorations.


Location and care

The Anemone coronaria Levante® Red grows best in a sunny to partially shaded spot with well-drained soil. It's at home in borders, flower boxes, rock gardens, or as a cutting garden plant.

Growing and care tips:

  • Planting bulbs: autumn (October–November) or spring, 5–7 cm deep

  • Planting distance: 10–15 cm between the bulbs

  • Soil: light, humus-rich and well-drained

  • Water: regularly during the growing season, but not excessively.

  • Protection: mulch prevents frost damage during wet winters

After flowering, the leaves wither. The bulbs can be dug up and stored, or in mild winters, they can be overwintered in the open ground.


Use in the garden

Levante® Red is versatile in use:

  • Spring border: combine with white, blue or purple spring flowers for a striking colour palette

  • Flower boxes and pots: compact size ideal for patios and balconies

  • Pick-your-own garden: sturdy flowers suitable for vase bouquets

  • Natural garden: plant multiple colours of the Levante® series for a spectacular effect

Thanks to its compact, even growth, this anemone can be planted both in groups and as a solitary plant, making it flexible in use.


Bee-friendly and low-maintenance

The Anemone coronaria Levante® Red attracts bees, bumblebees, and other pollinators, contributing to a biodiverse garden. Moreover, the plant is safe for pets and children.
