I am looking for the correct name of an annual spring flower called something like annocrous?

Maybe it's anemone or crocus?


In my garden the crocus is one of the first flowers to appear in the spring. It come up every year, so it's not an annual but a perennial. Some anemones like Anemone blanda (Greek Windflower) zone 4-8 are perennials, but Anemone coronaria (Poppy Anemone) is hardy only to zone 8-11...so it's an annual in other zones:

sounds like the name of some dudes wife in ancient rome.
Reply:Well this is a spring flowering perennial: aubretia - low lying and spreads, in purples, blues, pinks.


Can't think of anything else except Aquilegea.





What does this flower look like, colourwise, height etc?
