I took this photo about two weeks ago.
Unfortunately I can’t remember the name of this plant. It’s a spring flower that for me, only blooms for approximately one week each year. The name is something like pasiflora … but yeah, I know it’s not a pasiflora as it’s certainly not a passion flower.
Whatever it is, it’s a lovely spring flower who’s blooms open fully in the daylight hours and close as the light dims in the late afternoon. I have mine planted in a fairly shady area, so it does well in shade.
This flower is no longer blooming and it’s foliage will die down sometime in the next few weeks as we come into the warm weather of summer.

They are very nice. I doubt they’d grow at all here…

Well, whatever it is, it’s quite lovely and … fuzzy! Love that color. Such a shame it has so brief a bloom life.
Yaya! I’ve visited everyone! just have yours from last week to go! 😀

Love the look of this spring flower.

I have something similar. I think it’s Anemone rubra (Pasque Flower). I love them, even after the flowers die what remains is pretty.

Is is definitly a spring pasque flower-Pulsatilla vernalis. I got one in my garden, it is one of the first plants to bloom in early spring. The plant should have by now very ornamental seedheads.
