Double Deep-Rose Blooms on a Compact Fall Anemone

Curtain Call Deep Rose Anemone (Anemone 'Curtain Call Deep Rose') delivers rich, fully double deep-rose flowers on a tidy, compact plant from late summer into fall. Bred for a shorter, sturdier habit than older Japanese anemones, it brings strong late-season color to the front of part-shade borders without flopping. Deer-resistant and pollinator-friendly, it's a polished finale for Edina, Maple Grove, and Woodbury gardens.

Landscape Uses

Use Curtain Call Deep Rose at the front of part-shade borders, in containers, and along woodland edges. Its compact, sturdy habit pairs beautifully with hostas, ferns, and ornamental grasses, and the blooms are lovely for cutting.

Best Time to Plant

Plant in spring so the roots establish well before winter. In colder parts of Minnesota, a protected site and winter mulch improve overwintering.

How to Plant

Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep. Set the crown level with the soil, backfill with compost-enriched soil, water thoroughly, and mulch 2–3 inches deep.

Watering

First Year: Keep the soil consistently moist, watering 2–3 times per week. Anemones dislike drying out.
After Year One: Water regularly during dry spells; they prefer steady moisture.
Drip Irrigation: A soaker hose or drip line keeps the root zone evenly moist.
