Anemone

Common name: anemone

These charming plants include both early-flowering bulbs and late-flowering perennials. All have open, usually cup-shaped flowers, sometimes double or daisy-like with many petals. Depending on the type, they can be grown in borders, around trees and shrubs, or in containers.
