10 Pack of large corms (we don't source or ship size 3 corms like some of those people). See shipping details below. Mistral Centro Nero® (aka Mistral Panda Anemone) Mistral Panda is a standout among Italian anemones, featuring pure white petals that surround a dramatic bluish-black center with fine, lash-like anthers. The contrast is striking, making it a favorite for florists and gardeners who love a clean, bold look with tons of character. These aren't your average anemone corms—Mistral varieties are bred in Italy for larger blooms, longer stems, and superior performance. Centro Nero is no exception. With silky, layered petals and a center that pops, it brings that perfect blend of neutral tone and dramatic flair. Even better? It’s surprisingly easy to grow and can produce up to 15 flowers per corm, making it both gorgeous and productive—a true garden workhorse that looks high-end without the high-maintenance. What is so great about the Mistral series? The Mistral anemone series is basically the VIP section of the anemone world—premium genetics, bred in Italy, and built for performance and beauty. Here’s what makes the Mistral line special: 🌬️ 1. Bred for Early, Reliable Blooming Developed by Biancheri Creazioni, the same folks behind the Levante line, Mistral anemones are bred specifically for early-season blooming, even in cooler temps. That means more flowers, earlier, without having to wait for perfect weather. 🌸 2. Big, Showy Blooms These flowers aren’t shy. Large, poppy-style blooms with rich, saturated colors—white, red, blue, purple, pink, bicolors, and even some doubles. The petals are silky, often with a dark central “eye,” which makes them pop in arrangements. 💪 3. Strong Stems = Florist Gold Mistral anemones are known for their long, straight stems and excellent vase life, making them a go-to for florists and flower farmers. They're less floppy and more reliable than many older anemone types. 🧬 4. A Few Specialty Lines Within the Line There are some subtypes within the Mistral brand that are worth noting: Mistral Plus – Enhanced for uniform growth and even bigger blooms. Mistral Rarity – Unique colors and forms not found in other lines. Mistral Panda – A fan favorite with white petals and a dramatic dark center.
