I was confused when this was posted because the wood anemones I know don't look like this (in North Wales), they are white with six or seven petals species Anemone nemorosa, but sometimes have a pink blush. I have posted photos of both. I haven't seen these lilac ones, but on looking them up they appear to be Anemone blanda native of SE Europe, but no doubt a garden escapee and may now be "native" to the UK. Beautiful little flowers, and perhaps as "heartwarming" as seeing a carpet of A. nemorosa like I get in the woods near me, and across many woods in North Wales (that we can't bloody well go and see! Grrrr!)
