Wood Anemone

Wood anemone generally form what look like flowers but are actually called sepals. It spreads rapidly but is not considered invasive.

This hardy perennial forms carpets of star-shaped, white or blue blooms in late spring above well-divided foliage. Preferring moist and shady woodland conditions, this anemone naturalizes well in a suitable environment to form large, attractive colonies.
