A double-flowered variety of Eranthis hyemalis.
BELONGS TO THE FAMILY OF RANUNCULACEAE
Wnter aconite. The name is derived from the Greek words: er (spring) and anthos (flower). The underground parts are quite small, about the size of a pea and usually irregular in shape; larger specimens resemble a wing nut. The leaves form a rosette lying on the ground; the upper leaves bear some resemblance to a collar that encloses the flowers. The yellow flowers, equipped with many stamens, are located at the end of very short (approx. 5 cm) stalks and, after some time, form a veritable carpet of flowers. After flowering, the star-shaped seed pods appear. When they burst open, the round seeds will produce many offspring.
