Well, it's spring and the flowers are bursting open everywhere I look. So here's a new weekly meme just for the flowers! Today's Flowers hosts and links to flowers around the world can be found here.
I don't know what this flower is -- it lives around the corner from us. I love the fuzzy stalks and sepals. If you can identify it, I'd love to know what it is!

It *is* pretty...unfortunately, I have no idea what it is!
Still a lovely shot!
I think it's Kuschelle in German. Beautiful close up!
Kuhschelle, sorry!
Your flower is an American Pasqueflower. Nice capture

Its proper name is Pulsatilla vulgaris, a beautiful cold climate wildflower.
Great photo.
Back again, I see there are a few versions of its common name in German. The accepted common name however is Kuechenschelle or in tranlation, kitchen bell.
Amazing photo! Yes, I love the fuzzy too!
Lovely blossom ... kewl fuzziness!
Hugs and blessings,
Beautiful macro shot, and I love the color!
I am glad someone told you the name I would have not been able to help but the color is awesome and your focus, beautiful.

How exquisite, thank you very much for sharing your wonderful photo with Today's Flowers.
It certainly is fuzzy! I love its purpleness but can't help with identification.
This pasqueflower is lovely. I hope to post some of my own next week. YAY, spring!
