This plant is only visible for a short while, after it’s flowered and the fruits have ripened the plant withdraws its upper parts staying below ground until spring. There’s a variation in the number of petals between 6 and 8.

The plant can spread using seeds but it also uses an extensive root system shooting stems up over an area. If you see a group of these flowers it’s highly likely it’s a single individual
