Anemonastrum narcissiflorum, commonly known as Narcissus Anemone or Narcissus-flowered Anemone, is a perennial herb that thrives in alpine and subalpine zones, including the Northern Hemisphere’s Arctic regions, mountain meadows, and along riverbanks. It typically grows at a moderate rate to a height of 1.5-2 feet (0.46-0.6 meters) and features clumps of deeply divided, dark green leaves. The plant is renowned for its white, showy flowers that resemble daffodils, blooming in the summer and attracting pollinators. The flowers’ beauty and the plant’s ability to thrive in cooler climates make it a desirable addition to rock gardens, alpine collections, and as a border plant in garden settings.

Narcissus Anemone is valued for its ornamental flowers and its adaptability to a range of mountainous habitats. It is relatively low-maintenance, requiring medium amounts of water and thriving in well-drained loam or clay soils. While it prefers full sun or part shade, it can tolerate a variety of light conditions, making it versatile for gardeners. It is not commonly afflicted by diseases, but gardeners should be mindful of potential root rot in overly wet conditions. This species is not known for aggressive roots or invasiveness, making it a safe choice for cultivation near other plants.CC BY-SA 4.0
