A. 'Vestal' appears to have gone to the great garden in the sky but has been replaced by a couple of replacements I picked up from Plantsman's Preference in Norfolk a couple of weeks ago.

You could have had some of mine David, I have masses of it!

This started in a seed packet labelled "Pulsatilla occidentalis" but of course it wasn't (are you looking Chris Boulby?). On it's first flowering Tim Ingram ID'd it for me as Anemone multifida. I got concerned though about the red markings on the outsides of the sepals and this led to Lori Skulskie (forgive me if I've spelt that wrongly Lori) doing some research and she came up with Anemone tetonensis (Porter ex Britton).

So here it is:-

More flowers now open on Anemone coronaria.
These were grown from seed from Goteborg from seed collected in Iraq. They are been either white or purple but in the background you can see one that is an amethyst colour,
