Anemone berlandieri, commonly known as tenpetal thimbleweed or tenpetal anemone, is a rhizomatous perennial flowering plant in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae.[2] It is native to much of the Southern United States, where it flowers in the late winter and spring, between February and April. The specific epithet berlandieri honors Jean-Louis Berlandier (1803–1851), a botanist who explored Texas and Mexico in the nineteenth century.[3]

There is also an isolated population in the southern Appalachian Mountains.[2][4] It grows in sunny open areas, such as prairies and hillsides, and in wooded areas over a thin shale substrate.[5]
