While I was out for a walk, I spotted them blooming beautifully by the roadside.
This was my first time really seeing anemone flowers up close, so I ended up taking many photos.
This is one of the shots that turned out well.

The genus Anemone, commonly called windflower (scientific name: Anemone), comprises about 120 species of perennial herbaceous plants. They are widely distributed across temperate regions of the world. China has 52 species, found all over the country, mainly growing in high mountain areas. Some taxonomists also include the genera Pulsatilla and Hepatica in this genus.
Greek anemone
Anemone species are perennial herbs; their stems are typically tubers, rhizomes, or swollen woody underground stems; leaves are basal, divided or compound; the flowers are showy and bisexual, lacking true petals—the sepals are petal-like, 4–20 lobed, and occur in various colors: white, purple, blue, green, yellow, red, pink, and so on; the fruit is an achene.
The genus name Anemone derives from the Greek words anemos (wind) and mone (dweller), referring to the tendency of these plants to grow in windy places.
The genus includes about 150 species
