Eriocapitella tomentosa
Also called Hardy Grape Leaf Anemone
Eriocapitella tomentosa, a species of flowering plant in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae, is native to Asia. The specific epithet tomentosa means "thickly matted with hairs, tomentum (padding)". It was formerly a member of genus Anemone and shares the common name Japanese anemone with several other Eriocapitella species. In Chinese, a common name is dàhuǒcǎo (大火草), which literally means "big fire grass" or "great fireweed".
Eriocapitella tomentosa along with four other taxa (E. hupehensis, E. japonica, E. vitifolia, and E. × hybrida) are known as fall-blooming anemones. In its native habitat, E. tomentosa flowers from July to October.
