It has a beautiful pure white flower about 18" / 24" high. Apparently its difficult to move or remove - when you dig down there's just nothing there in terms of a root system.
Another popular one is White Swan - usually well behaved in most situations.

I posted earlier today. The pink J Anemone Queen Charlotte is one to avoid. I have seen it go under a wall and through to the other side. I always find it strange that they are difficult to transplant becuse they seem so tough. I have had success by taking a piece with has a decent piece of root even if it is damaged. I have moved it straight to the new planting hole and watered well until established. If you dig up a small piece with little root, chances are it won't survive. Planting in a pot is also very hit and miss too.
The most serious gardening I do would seem very strange to an onlooker,for it involves hours of walking round in circles,apparently doing nothing. Helen Dillon.
This one doesn't seem to be too much of a thug. Would it help with further identification if I post a picture of it in flower later?

@FredTheFifth I think White Swan would be easy to ID but personally I don't know the difference between Whirlwind and Honorine Jobert.
