Robustissima Grapeleaf Anemone

Anemone tomentosa ‘Robustissima’, a.k.a. Anemone × hybrida 'Robustissima', produces single, light-pink-to-lavender flowers from late summer through fall on a perennial that tops out at 32 inches in height. It is best grown in shade to partial shade with room to spread over time. This cultivar is among the most heat and drought tolerant of the fall-blooming wind flowers. However, it still requires consistently moist soil to avoid leaf burn and damage to the flowers. The deep green foliage is densely hirsute (hairy) on the underneath side and is rabbit resistant. The flowers attract butterflies, the cotton puffball like fruit in early winter are showy, if fleeting.
