Anemone season...yes, already!

Anemone season peaks in March, but this year it started in November! What I mean is that one species of Anemone has been seen blooming this year starting November 28th, A. edwardsiana, spotted by @bachusrock. The previous "record" for early bloom in this species was January 20th, 2019.
