Harlequin™ Cameo Japanese Anemone truly earns its reputation as a living bouquet. In spring, a tidy mound of deep green, slightly leathery foliage sets the stage, looking polished and intentional even before flowers appear. By midsummer, stems rise gracefully above the foliage, each topped with fluted, rose-pink blooms that seem carefully arranged by nature itself. The effect is refined but joyful, bringing instant color and movement to the garden.
What makes this anemone especially valuable is its long performance window. Flowers continue opening for weeks on end, carrying vibrant color well into fall when many perennials are starting to fade. The blooms are held upright and clustered closely, creating a lush, full appearance without flopping or spreading aggressively. This well-behaved habit makes Harlequin™ Cameo Japanese Anemone an excellent choice for borders and mixed perennial beds.
Easygoing and dependable, this anemone fits effortlessly into a wide range of landscapes. Pollinators flock to the nectar-rich flowers, adding life and motion to the garden throughout the late season. With minimal maintenance and a naturally compact form, it delivers months of interest without demanding attention. For gardeners who want reliable color, structure, and charm, this plant checks every box.

HARLEQUIN™ CAMEO JAPANESE ANEMONE Homeowner Growing & Maintenance Tips
- Recommended Soil:
- Prefers well-drained soil that retains consistent moisture.
- Performs best in loamy or amended garden beds rich in organic matter.
- Avoid heavy clay soils that stay wet for long periods.
- Raised beds or gently sloped areas improve drainage in wetter climates.
- Sun Exposure:
- Thrives in full sun to partial shade.
- Morning sun with light afternoon shade is ideal in warmer regions.
- Too much shade may reduce flowering and stem strength.
- In cooler climates, full sun encourages the strongest bloom display.
- Irrigation Needs:
- Water regularly during establishment to encourage strong root growth.
- Once established, tolerates short dry spells but prefers even moisture.
- Mulching helps retain soil moisture and regulate temperature.
- Avoid prolonged soggy conditions, especially in winter.
- Feeding & Nutrients:
- Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring.
- Compost or organic amendments support steady, healthy growth.
- Excessive feeding can lead to lush foliage with fewer flowers.
- No supplemental feeding is needed during dormancy.
- Pruning & Maintenance:
- Remove spent flower stems to keep plants tidy, if desired.
- Allow foliage to die back naturally at the end of the season.
- Divide clumps every few years if plants become crowded.
- Low-maintenance habit requires minimal seasonal attention.

Interesting Notes About HARLEQUIN™ CAMEO JAPANESE ANEMONE
- A Cultivated Garden Performer
- Late-Season Pollinator Magnet
- Part of the Harlequin™ Series
- Non-Aggressive Growth
- Mild Toxicity Awareness
Harlequin™ Cameo was selected for its refined habit and long flowering season, offering improved structure and bloom consistency compared to older fall anemones.
Blooming when many nectar sources fade, this anemone becomes an important food source for bees and other beneficial insects.
The Harlequin™ series is known for taller flower stems and a more upright, bouquet-style presentation compared to earlier anemone selections.
Unlike some spreading anemones, this variety maintains a tidy clump and does not run aggressively through garden beds.
Like many anemones, all parts of the plant can be mildly toxic if ingested, so it's best planted away from curious pets or livestock.
