What A Color!

I didn't realize how faded the flowers were on this poppy anemone when I first bought it. In person, the new flowers are the most amazing dark, denim blue.

I'm disheartened by how poorly these plants do in warmer weather. Maybe it was just the shock of the sudden temperature change? Either way, we won't be seeing 85 degrees for a little while. Unlike most plants, these babies seem to be perfectly happy to live indoors. Odd.
