Long lasting off-white blooms become fluffy when seed is ripe for multi-season interest. Does not spread by rhizomes like other Anemone, and instead forms a clump. Excellent plant for a woodland or shade garden. Not normally browsed by mammals because the plant contains a chemical which causes blistering of the mouth and digestive tract.
