Anemone obtusiloba "Pradesh" - reminding me of a wonderful visit to Ian Christie's nursery last year.

Very interesting to see how the flower changes, during 3 consecutive days and becomes more beautiful every day  :D.

Wonderful plant, Luc!

Several years ago I collected in Turkey extremely low sample of Anemone coronaria. I'm not generally interested in A. coronaria as they are not easy here, but this one was so dwarf that I decided to try. It was collected in 2007 and only this spring greated me with first flowwers, keeping its dwarf habit. There were 2 color forms (I remembered that I collected only red one, but seem that memory have faults).
Another in this entry is Anemone tschernjajewii from Jilek seeds
and as last - Anemone biflora collected by me in Iran.

Hi Roland,
Yes there is a letter wrong should of course read nemorosa.

All the photos I have seen of 'Green Fingers' look like mine with the white petals.

Flowers of them are quite variable from plant to plant and from season to season. In general 'Green Fingers' has white petals and in leaf-like structure modified anthers. 'Virescens' has no white flower segments, they all are replaced by leaf-like structure. Sometimes mutations happens in stocks, so care must be done to keep original shape. Problem that change in shape can be annual and next year flowers return to normal form.
