A very, very close view of achenes bursting forth from their chambers - They are held in the "thimble" by the green structures as well as a clear, shiny membrane (but my eyes could be deceiving me). The elliptical, flat, curve-beaked , 2.7-3.5 × 2.2-2.5 mm seeds themselves are not shiny (being covered in fine hairs).

For identification purposes:

Note: Anemone edwardsiana var. petraea is endemic and found on the Edwards Plateau. Its 0.5-1 mm flat achenes are varnished, glabrous (no hairs) and have a straight beak..

Note: Anemone edwardsiana var. edwardsiana 0.5-1 mm achenes are woolly with a tuft of hair at the base (do not have a plume of hairs) and have a straight beak.
