Did you know that despite its name - #JapaneseAnemone - that this pretty #perennial #plant isn't actually from Japan?
It was introduced there, hundreds of years ago & became naturalized. It is actually native to China, #Taiwan & #Vietnam.
It's been cultivated in gardens, worldwide.

Hundreds of years ago, a form of E. hupehensis with smaller, semi-double flowers & pink sepals escaped cultivation and spread across #China to #Japan & #Korea. After finding this form in a #Shanghai graveyard in 1843, the plant explorer/ #botanist Robert Fortune sent it home to England where it became known as E. japonica, the Japanese anemone. European #horticulturists crossed the Japanese anemone with E. vitifolia to produce #cultivars of the artificial hybrid E. × hybrida.
