Pulsatilla vulgaris formerly Anemone pulsatilla, common name Pasque Flower
This image is of the seed pod that comes out later in the Spring after the flowers have gone. The flowers themselves are as showy as the seed pods (though don't look quite as alien) and emerge as an early sign of Spring, providing the name Pasque as associated with Easter. After doing a little research on this species, I am more inclined towards the seed bud than the actual flower itself though both are attractive. The plants themselves stay pretty low, about 6", with the seed pods reaching up to 18".
