Question
This is growing on a rock at the edge of a brook in Massachusetts in May. Blooming at the same time as wild Viburnam.
Answer
Dear bellycat209, good morning. You have photographed Anemone quinquefolia (wood windflower), a native member of the crowfoot family. It is an early, spring-flowering perennial that is often found with other early-flowering species like trout-lily, bloodroot, and Dutchman's-breeches. Best wishes.
