@AspenHill, oh my. What wonderful plants! The toad lily variety I saw the picture of is Samurai -- and even seeing all yours, it's still my favorite, I think, because of the contrast and dramatic colors.
That same list (I think) where I saw that, there was mention of a specific Japanese anemone that was a good bloomer in some way -- longer lasting or earlier start or more flowers, I forget which. It was one of the pink ones. The only kind I've known are white, so it's sweet to learn there are so many colors available.
