Anemone is a genus of about 120 species of flowering plants in the family Ranunculaceae, native to temperate zones. The genus is closely related to Pulsatile and Hepatica; some botanists even include both of these genera within Anemone. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, Greek anemone means "daughter of the wind", from ánemos the wind god. The name "windflower" is used for the whole genus as well as the wood anemone A. Anemone are perennials that have basal leaves with long leaf-stems that can be upright or prostrate. Leaves are simple or compound with lobed, parted, or undivided leaf blades. The leaf margins are toothed or entire.
