There are more than 200 types of anemone, but one of the most dramatic for the fall garden is Japanese anemone (Anemone x hybrida, shown at left). A towering specimen--to 5 feet--it bears loads of pink or white flowers from late summer to autumn. 'Honorine Jobert' is a favorite; it has beautiful clear white flowers with golden yellow stamens. Anemone can be a bit of a thug, as the roots like to run, but the masses of flowers are worth it. Zones 4-8.
