Ideal temperature for anemone × hybrida 'september charm'
Aim for -25 to 27°C (-13 to 81°F) on the thermostat and you've handled the easy part. The hard part is the half-metre around the plant: window glass that drops to near-freezing on a January night, a radiator pumping out hot dry air, a draught from an opened front door. Move the plant 30 cm and you've usually fixed the problem. Below roughly -25°C growth pauses; cold beyond that pushes it into dormancy rather than killing it outright.

Within that range it tolerates a cold dormant spell outdoors; outside it, grow it in a container you can move under cover or overwinter in a cool but frost-free spot.

Humidity for anemone × hybrida 'september charm'
Anemone × hybrida 'September Charm' sits happiest at around Ambient outdoor relative humidity. A hardy border perennial with no special humidity needs. Adequate spacing and airflow help limit foliar diseases in damp autumn weather. The usual low-humidity tell is crisp brown leaf tips and edges while the soil moisture is fine — a sign the air, not the watering, is the problem. If you need to raise it, the reliable methods are grouping plants together, standing the pot on a tray of damp pebbles (the pot above the waterline, never in it), or running a small humidifier in winter when indoor heating dries the air most. Misting is the least effective — it raises humidity for minutes, not hours.
