    I hope you enjoy your R. Iceberg as much as I did mine... for about 3 years. It was a magnificent bouquet of white roses for about 3 weeks in June and after that it was just a bunch of diseased leaves and thorns. Although given for repeating well it never did. I got fed up and dug it up last autumn. I then found that the roots were all entwined and had more or less remained what they were in the container that I had bought them in.
    It was replaced with a bare root specimen of R. 'Sourire d'orchidée' which has just started to produce lovely flowers.
    I didn't know of Japanese anemones which could flower so early in season! That Wild Swan anemone is lovely!

    BTW Papi Jo, parentage of Anemone Wild Swan is A Rupicola and Japanese A Hupehensis so not a true Japanese Anemone. It's flower stems are fairly lax compared to Japanese Anemone.
