what is a anemone
Anemone comes from anemos, the greek word for wind, thus giving Anemone the name wind flower. The genus Anemone consists of 120 species of perennial flowering plants, which grow from tubers. Anemones grow wild in many European countries, in North America, and Japan. Anemones are closely related to Pasque flower (Pulsatilla) and Hepatica (Hepatica); some botanists include both of these genera within the genus Anemone. Kingdom Plantae
