The success of Anemone ‘Cameo’ begins with its location: sun to partial shade, in suitable soil (humus-rich, retaining moisture during growth, without stagnant water around the collar). For Anemone ‘Cameo’, regularly check the soil around the root ball: it must remain moist. Water at the base when the surface begins to dry and adjust watering according to rainfall; this exposure (sun to partial shade) does not eliminate water requirements.

When planting Anemone ‘Cameo’, keep the location of the rootstock marked and limit soil disturbance around the roots. Anemones establish better when their roots do not experience alternating severe drought and saturation. For companion planting, consider perennial geraniums, echinaceas, and campanulas in varieties with similar needs. The flowering period (July-October) and the 45 cm spread will serve as markers for distributing other plants around this plant.
