This little beauty is Anemone Blanda or Grecian Windflower. A common wildflower in the Mediterranean regions they do dance in the wind. These beauties don't last for long and were once a symbol of death. According to Greek Myth Aphrodite transformed Adonis into a purple anemone after his death. She loved him so much she wanted him to live on. In Christian myths they symbolize blood spilled by the saints.
Such a pretty little flower with such fascinating lore.
