This is one of the flowers from my pressed flowers series. Reduction lino that was then cut out. The White you see is the lid of the scanner. This little baby has the tiniest stems you can imagine.

rue anemone also called wind flower

Thalictrum thalictroides or earlier classified as
Anemonella thallictroides

From Wikipedia

[link]

"Thalictrum thalictroides, the rue anemone, is a plant in the buttercup family, Ranunculaceae.

The plant was originally described as Anemone thalictroides by Linnaeus in 1753. It was transferred to a new, monospecific genus, Anemonella, by Édouard Spach in 1839[1]. Although similar to plants in the genus Thalictrum, Sprach considered the diminutive size, umbelliform inflorescence, and tuberous roots of this species to be distinctive enough to designate a new genus. JRB Boivin considered this distinction suspect, and transferred the species to the genus Thalictrum in 1957[2]. Molecular evidence supports the placement of the species within Thalictrum[3], and this placement is accepted by several modern treatments[4].

This plant is a spring ephemeral endemic to the forests of eastern North America. It is also cultivated in shade gardens."
