áneamente

Anemone is a genus of plants belonging to the family Ranunculaceae, commonly known as the windflower. These perennial herbaceous plants are found throughout the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with a few species extending into the Arctic. Anemone species are characterized by their delicate, often brightly colored flowers, which typically appear in spring or early summer. The name "anemone" is derived from the Greek word for "wind," alluding to the way their petals are said to be scattered by the wind. Their foliage is usually basal, with leaves arising directly from the ground, and stems that bear one or more flowers. Many species are cultivated for their ornamental value in gardens, prized for their ephemeral beauty and ease of care in suitable conditions. Different species exhibit a range of growth habits, from low-growing groundcovers to taller varieties. The genus includes well-known species such as the common wood anemone (Anemone nemorosa) and the Japanese anemone (Anemone x hybrida). Some anemone species have a history of use in traditional medicine, although caution is advised due to potential toxicity in certain parts of the plant. They generally prefer well-drained soil and partial shade, though some species can tolerate full sun. Their lifecycle typically involves a period of dormancy, often underground as rhizomes or corms.
