Anemone Hortensis (Anemos άνεμος)

            Anemone is a genus of about 120 species of flowering plants in the buttercup family Ranunculaceae in the north and south temperate zones. They are closely related to Pasque flower (Pulsatilla) and Hepatica (Hepatica); some botanists include both of these genera within Anemone.
The plants are perennial herbs with an underground rootstock, and radical, more or less deeply cut, leaves. The elongated flower stem bears one or several, white, red, blue or rarely yellow, flowers; there is an involucre of three leaflets below each flower. The fruits often bear long hairy styles which aid their distribution by the wind ("windflower" is a common name sometimes used for members of the genus).

L'Anemone stellata o fior di stella (Anemone hortensis L.) è una pianta erbacea selvatica della famiglia delle Ranunculacee.È una pianta perenne, erbacea, rizomatosa, con fusto eretto alla fioritura.Ha foglie basali picciuolate con lamina palmata, e 3-5 lobi arrotondati. I fiori sono terminali di colore variabile da bianco-azzurrino a rosso-viola, hanno 12-20 petali lanceolati e acuti, e numerosi stami grigio-antracite.In Italia è molto diffuso nel Frusinate e a Latina.
