That's a wonderful Anemone, Janis.

Your wife must be very happy to have such a beautiful plant named for her.

Hello Janis ,

what a funny pure chance !

I have just taken a pic from a A.blanda found by me on a trip in Turkey 2004 ...it looks very similar like yours  ;D
Maybe I should name it after my wife "Barbara" ?

Regards
Hans

Janis and Hans,

Presuming the flowers reflect the ladies in your lives, I must say you are married to two beautiful ladies.

YT,

I hope you, your family and friends are all well in Japan. We have very frequent updates here on our television news programmes so realise what a terrible event you have experienced.

Paddy, thank you very much for your warm-hearted message. I’m so sorry for so many victims and serious accidents by the earthquake. Fortunately my place is relatively far from the disaster area and my family and friends are all OK so far. Even in such a difficult situation, spring is coming here same as usual and this forum makes me comfort ;)

Anemone hortensis   

From JJA seed (pop. ref. 161.003). Ex  a Tom Norman collection: Sardinia, woodland, 850m., May 1996.

I am not planning to name this after anyone.

I try to avoid growing of common cultivars but Anemone blanda RADAR is so spectacular, that I'm keeping few tubers.
Anemone blanda aff. from Enem comes from very isolated population in NW Caucasus, far from other blanda's separated by dwarf Anemone caucasica. I suppose it is different species (or at least subspecies) as it have tubers of very different shape - they are long, resembles small black branches.
