Anemone Honorine Jobert
A late-flowering perennial with elegant white blooms
A timeless garden classic with effortless grace, Anemone ‘Honorine Jobert’ brings light and movement to the late-season garden. From late summer into autumn, tall, wiry stems rise above fresh green foliage, carrying pristine white, saucer-shaped flowers with golden centers that seem to float and dance in the breeze.
Beloved for its reliability and refined beauty, this Japanese anemone thrives in shade as well as sun and settles in happily among perennials, shrubs, or woodland plantings. It’s an ideal choice for adding brightness as other plants begin to fade, and its long bloom period makes it a valuable pollinator plant late in the season.
Top Tip
Anemone 'Honorine Jobert' thrives in shade, especially partial shade, making it perfect for brightening dark corners, woodland edges, or the back of borders with its tall stems of white flowers in late summer and autumn.

White Foxglove (Digitalis purpurea f. albiflora)
In this Soto Masterclass, Max introduces the White Foxglove, which is also known as the Digitalis purpurea f. albiflora, a very similar relation to the Sutton's Apricot Foxglove.
The White Foxglove loves to bask in the sun and provides elegant points of interest to the scheme. Loved by pollinators they are a focal point within a border.
Max explains that as a biennial the flowers have a two year life cycle, with flowers at their best in the second year.
Watch Max demonstrate how to spread the seeds of the foxglove to grow more plants. He explains, when, how and where to cut the foxglove stem with secateurs and how to feed them with compost after. Max reveals this is a job which can be done into late Autumn.
This guide shows how to encourage a smaller second flush of flowers in the summer. Read the full Masterclass on pruning a foxglove here.
