I have worked with A.D.R. Bulbs for almost 5 years now, and my company has sourced bulbs with them for longer than that. Communication is great - from ordering, to deliveries, to follow-ups on final product. I love the quality of the product as well as the service. We plant nearly 100,000 bulbs and A.D.R. keeps the whole process easy for us!

Anemone Coronaria Single 'Mr. Fokker'

Windflower

Anemone ‘Mr. Fokker’ is a beloved De Caen classic, celebrated for its rich, saturated violet‑blue blooms that read almost electric in spring light. The single‑petaled flowers surround a dark central eye, creating a crisp contrast that makes this variety one of the most striking blues in the anemone world. Grown from size 8+ corms, plants typically reach 10–12 inches tall and produce elegant 2–3 inch blooms ideal for beds, borders, and premium cut‑flower production.

In zones 7–10, ‘Mr. Fokker’ can be planted in fall for late‑winter to early‑spring flowering. In cooler climates, it performs best when started indoors or planted in spring for summer blooms. It thrives in full sun to part shade and prefers well‑drained, humus‑rich soil. Pre‑soaking the corms before planting encourages strong root development and ensures a vivid, reliable display.
