Through the years I've tried just about everyone for bulbs but A.D.R. is tops. It's a family run business and the service levels and expertise are as good as the product they sell. My clients rave about the results we get with A.D.R. and that makes me happy.

Anemone Coronaria Single 'Duet'
Windflower
Anemone Duet (Bicolor) produces striking single‑petaled blooms with crisp white petals boldly brushed or tipped in vivid red or deep rose. Each flower is anchored by a dark central eye that intensifies the contrast, giving the blooms a clean, dramatic, high‑impact look. Plants grown from size 8+ corms typically reach 10–12 inches tall, with flowers measuring 2–3 inches across, creating an elegant, standout display in beds, borders, and cut‑flower programs.
In zones 7–10, Anemone Duet can be planted in fall for late‑winter to early‑spring blooms. In cooler climates, they perform best when started indoors or planted in spring for summer flowering. They thrive in full sun to part shade and prefer well‑drained, humus‑rich soil. Pre‑soaking the corms before planting encourages strong root development and ensures a vibrant, reliable show.
