Planting Anemone Seeds

I'm not sure where my first Canadian Anemone plant came from. I think I found it a church garage sale where I picked up a few small plants.














It has spread over the years, perhaps by dropping its seed nearby. This year I have become more attentive to the plant cycle (thanks, in part to my botanical drawing class).


















As I watch round little pods replace the flowers...














 ... and these, in turn, become fuzzy growth, I have decided to "plant" this fluff by laying it on the ground in other parts of my flower bed.














Hopefully next year (or the following) I will be surprised by new bunches of anemones in early spring. (Just when I appreciate flowers the most!)
