Wood Anemone

Wood anemone . . . . Doesn't the name of this little flowering plant conjure up images of fairies, magic dust and a cool woodland?

At my home I discovered that I have wood anemones growing at the edge of the lake, among the iris and reeds, and underneath several maple trees. The pretty little white flowers, with yellow centers, are small and delicate, perfectly contrasting against the vibrant forked leaves. Aren't wood anemones enchanting?
