Anemone Coronaria

20 years ago

We grow these as annuals here but alas I was over-zealous and planted them in large 4" a peat pots a bit too early (under grow lights). Now they are leggy and about 7 or 8" tall. My intention is to plant them, peat pots and all into a larger container, however does anyone know if I can plant the peat pots deeper in the larger container, so that they aren't so floppy and leggy? I know that with some plants, like dahlias for example, you start the tubers shallowly then plant them deeper in the ground after the foliage has grown. Any advice about whether or not anemone coronarias can take this treatment would be greatly appreciated. I planted them 2" deep in the peat pots, but various references suggest they can be planted as deep as 4" (if that helps). Thanks so much.
