Title: Anemone unknown
Post by: akoen on September 02, 2009, 10:52:12 AM: I have a Anemone I am not sure what is. So i am asking for some help here.
The pic. is not to god, but it is to late to take new ones now. The back side of the petals are a bit blue.
The flowerstems may be 60-70 cm.

I know it is several Anemone it can be. But I don't know the difference.

Yes, but isn't it anyting about that one of them have more petals than the other?
Mine have 7.
