I decided to do a Google Images search to see if I could find any 
pictures of an anemone similar to my new one.  I looked at 444 
pictures, many of the plain white wild form, lots of Vestal, and 
occasional blues.  Only one Bracteata, but a couple of interesting 
ones that I haven't seen before.  Sylvia from Finland has three 
pictures of Pink Delight in her Galleria.  It is like a medium pink 
Vestal.   Christine Skelmersdale, Owner of Broadleigh Gardens, grows 
a double white with a blue-purple eye.  That is the one that should 
be named "Blue Eyes" instead of the non-descript one I bought.

Hannelotte Kindlund has a page full of nemorosa pictures - Pink 
Delight here is very pale, and Monstrosa 2 is what I call Bracteata. 
There are also a couple of green-centred doubles, one called Green 
Fingers.

None like mine, though.  I will transplant it to its own space and 
see if it looks the same next year.
