Both tuberous flowers prefer cool-season growth, sharp drainage, and similar watering schedules; ranunculus attracts hoverflies controlling anemone pests.

Tulips and anemones share spring bloom timing and drainage needs; tulips' taller stems provide afternoon shade protecting anemone petals.

Where to source

Shop local first
The best plants come from a real nursery, and the best trowel comes from the old-fashioned ironmonger down the road — people who know their stock and can advise. Try local first, both for the plant and the kit. It keeps small growers and small hardware shops alive.
