I have no images to send. I just have 6 dozen de caen mix anemones.
In this case, early spring will be when the soil is workable and no longer frozen. They can tolerate frost, so just when you are able to see milder temperatures during the day time. This article will give you more information on the care of these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/anemone/anemone-windflower.htm
It has a purple flower with 13 petals about 2" across. The center is very dark brown (almost black) with pink to white surround and has a sweet scent. I thought it might be a Monarda (aka bee balm) but it is the leaves which have me puzzled. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your weekly newsletter; I've learned so much and think you are providing a great service to "trying gardeners".
It took awhile to find this, but it looks to be Cineraria Plant (Pericallis cruenta). Also called Blue Daisy. Yours may be the Florist's SenettiĀ® Blue variety.
Hello - is it possible to somehow stunt the growth of a Japanese Anemone?? For instance, when mine start to grow in the spring, could I cut them back before I see flowers or buds?? Thank you
I only see mention of cutting them back in the fall. Some articles say they don't need staking, others say they do.
You might sacrifice blooms if you cut them back before flowering and interrupt the bloom cycle. You can try dividing your plant in spring. Then cut back one plant and leave the other and see how the cut one performs.

Hi so the Japanese Anemone plant consisted of a large root with lots of long stems with lots of lovely pink flowers . The plant was on a verge not even much in the ground but seemed very happy . I was given the plant and I planted it in the ground with a little compost which was wet . However I then WATERED IT and am worried in case that might rot it . It is however warm and sunny today . Shall I did it up and plant again and not add water . ( I gave it over half a watering can of water) I don't want to lose it as its really tall and lovely , loads of flowers. Many thanks
Although your plant may experience a little transplant shock, it should be fine. Just don't let it get too dry!
Here's a helpful article: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/bulbs/anemone/japanese-anemone-care.htm
the leaves all fell and now i see a few leaves coming through the ground. Will my plant survive? I planted it in September and covered it for the winter.
Your plant should be fine if there are no pests involved. Be sure to trim away dead leaves and debris around it. Here's an article:

Flowers have hardly any stem
This can happen for a few reasons. Some cultivars will have shorter flowers than others, so be sure that you have one with longer stems.
Excess nitrogen, while not having enough phosphorus and potassium in the soil can cause this, as well.
This article will help you to care for the plant as it should be:
