Rue anemone is a delightful woodland plant native to North America, which produces pink-tinged white flowers through spring and early summer. The flowers contrast nicely with the dark green-blue leaves.

Anemonella thalictroides 'Amelia' bears delicate, cup-shaped flowers in strong pink. For best results, grow in informal parts of the garden, amongst shrubs, or on the shady side of a rock garden. Plants take quite a while to become established, after which they gradually spread.
