Windflowers in Bloom

A week or so ago, I was puzzled by a plant that was growing in my front flower bed. It was well over a meter or yard tall.

It recently came into bloom and I recognized it as a "Anemone tormentosa" or Windflower "robustissima" that I must have planted a year or two ago!

I see (in the nursery link above) that they are unattractive to deer. That really isn't a problem in the city - though rural gardeners could consider this factor!

It may be the latest blooming flower I have. (The next step, in perennial flower gardens, is dividing - and separating - these wonderful flowers that all need a little more space each year.)
