Anemone latifolia flore pleno coccineo.

THe broad-leaved Anemone with a double scarlet flower hath the leaves as green, but smaller than those of the former; the flower is thick and double, consisting of many round-pointed narrow long leaves, which are wholly of a rich scarlet colour; there is ano∣ther that beareth double scarlet flowers, the leaves whereof are narrow, sharp-pointed, and of a lighter scarlet colour; this is that sort which is commonly called super-rich, and there is another that beareth double flowers almost as large as the first, which are of the colour of red-lead.
