Beautiful Tsuyoshi, is this growing in your garden?

Thank you for all your comments
Hi Janey, No, this plant is different from winter Aconite, you can find the difference between the foliage of this plant and one of winter Aconite, seeing website, URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eranthis.
Click the image titled 'Foliage at the end of flowering, you can see a large image of the foliage of winter Aconte.
Hi Chloris, Yes, but they can't occupy a sufficient place, because i haven't any garden as you all say 'garden' in uk. In autumn, gathering fallen leaves of both zolkova trees planted along the load in front of my house (you can see it on my website. the link is in the page, 'About me') and quercus serrata in a mountain within 100 m from my house, and i cover the place with the leaves. This way has one problem that chickweed propagates mainly even in winter. Today, i removed the leaves, chickweed and other weeds, fortunately this work is very easy. i love this way, because i can feel nature, as if flowers are blooming in nature.

It might sound like hard work Tsuyoshi, but its giving you results as your plants are set off beautifully.
