From day to day blooms can vary.

Otherwise, the color is hard wired into the plant’s genetics, so unless the original plant has been replaced by a seedling (which is possible with many perennials, but not likely with anemone) the change in color is due to changes in sun or shade.

I find they do better in full rather than parial shade, but they flower in both locations. August in shade and September in partial shade.

However, I have noticed that the flowers on some of the older plants are no longer as intense as they were when they first started blooming (in their second year).

Anyone have suggestions?
