The double Rose coloured Anemone differeth also in nothing from the
former double purple, but onely in the flower, which is somewhat
smaller, and not so thicke and double, and that it is of a reddish
colour, neare vnto the colour of a pale red Rose, or of a deepe
coloured Damaske.
10. _Anemone tenuifolia flore pleno carneo viuacissimo._
The double Carnation Anemone.
This Anemone, both in roote, leafe, and flower, commeth nearest vnto
the former double white Anemone, for the largenesse and doublenesse of
the flower, and in the smalnesse of the middle thrums, and euennesse at
the toppes of them, being not so large and great a flower as the double
purple, either in the inner or outer leaues, but yet is very faire,
thicke and double, and of a most liuely Carnation silke colour, very
deepe, both the outer leaues and middle thrums also so bright, that it
doth as it were amaze, and yet delight the minde of the beholder, but
by long standing in the Sun, waxe a little paler, and so passe away as
all the most beautifull flowers doe.

This double Veluet Anemone is in all things like the last described

the middle thrums, resembling the colour of the lesser _Amaranthus
purpureus_, or Purple flower gentle hereafter described, whereof it
tooke the name, which middle thrums are as fine and small, and as euen
at the toppes as the white or last Carnation Anemones.
