Harmony Scarlet Anemone

Harmony Scarlet Anemone (Anemone coronaria Harmony Scarlet) is the gold standard for gardeners seeking high-drama, early-season color. This semi-double variety is famous for its large 2.5- to 3.5-inch blooms in a deep, velvety scarlet red, often featuring a dark, contrasting center that provides a sophisticated and modern look.

As a highly-regarded member of the Anemone genus, the Harmony series is specifically bred for its compact habit and incredibly sturdy stems. These qualities make it a premier choice for professional florists and wedding arrangements, as the flowers maintain an exceptionally long vase life once cut. In the garden, these "Poppy Anemones" thrive in borders and decorative containers, providing a lush appearance with their delicate, lace-like foliage. While the blooms look fragile, the plant is remarkably resilient and naturally resistant to deer.

Why you’ll love it:

• Rich Scarlet Color: Intense, deep red petals that provide a bold "pop" in spring landscapes and containers.
• Ideal for Cutting: Features long, strong stems that are perfect for high-end floral designs and wedding bouquets.
• Compact Growth: Stays tidy at 6–10 inches tall, making it an excellent choice for front-of-border planting.
• Deer Resistant: A beautiful flowering perennial that garden pests typically avoid.
• Long-Lasting Blooms: Known for a superior vase life, allowing you to enjoy the garden indoors.

This 4-inch healthy live plant thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moderate moisture in well-drained soil. As a deciduous perennial tuber, it will go dormant after its spectacular spring show, only to return with renewed vigor. Hardy in USDA Zones 6–9, Harmony Scarlet is a classic and reliable choice for anyone wanting florist-quality blooms at home.
