Pacific Anemone, Red Windflower, Early Thimbleweed, Cut-leaf Anemone
Anemone multifida (Pacific Anemone) is a charming herbaceous perennial forming loose clumps of slender, silky stems clad with long-petioled, finely divided downy leaves. In late spring to late summer, solitary, silky, poppy-like flowers, 1 in. across (2.5 cm), greenish, yellowish or purplish outside, yellowish-white inside, appear for several weeks atop the stems. The blossoms are followed by silky, pinkish seedheads used by hummingbirds to build their nests. Easy to grow, this North American species is a great, little anemone for the rock garden or the front of the border. Ideal for growing in shady spots such as woodlands, or north-facing gardens.
