Description
One of the earliest wildflowers to come up in the spring in central Texas is Anemone berlandieri, known as an anemone or windflower. Flower color in this species ranges from white through pale and medium violet to the rich purple you see here. The contrasting brown beyond the anemone came from a dry leaf, which not only lent its color but also conveniently blocked distracting details on the ground beneath it.

Love the colors and the detail you brought out on the flower.
Steven Schwartzman replied:
The background was important in making the flower's color stand out all the more.
