Thank you Maggi,
I've had the same answer from a French gardener. Let' see if other flowers show up in the next days.

Two more photos as it opened more today, we had up to  19°C ... not really sure it is semi-double.

Anemone blanda 'Akseki' is nicely flowering now!

Allenii - dusty lavender blue on top, rosy underneath
Robinsoniana - pale lavender on top, creamy fawn underneath

Anemone nemerosa 'Explosion' from Janis

It's in his 2014 catalogue which he gave me today -  50 Euros.

I grow may be more than 30 hybrids but this one is in my top 5, it's a treasure

The pot is in the greenhouse, the other roots planted in garden are just showing buds.

Tony, Great plants!
The red one is so unusual for hortensis - did it occur within a population of  ' normal ' ones
as an exception or might it be a hybrid perhaps?
