Anemone nemorosa
Wood Anemone
Description
This small perennial grows 3-6', and has creeping rhizomes, deeply-cut leaves and flowers suspended above the foliage (the color of which will be white; on rare occassions is pinkish or blue). Slow-spreading, it makes an attractive woodland groundcover. When sown immediately, the seeds of this anemone will produce flowering plants in 3-4 years. Its blossoms produce burr-like fruit similiar (but smaller) than the Canadian anemone. The best effect of this plant comes from growing it in masses.

Give your sprinkler system a checkup when turning it on in the spring and occasionally during the summer.
Trim branches that are obstructing spray patterns and raise sprinklers that are too low for spray to clear the grass.
