An illustrated guide to the flowering plants of the middle Atlantic and New England states (excepting the grasses and sedges) the descriptive text written in familiar language . eacute than in H. triloba. In rich moist woods. April-May. 4. ANEMONE, , erect, with leaves arising by a leaf-stalk directly from the baseand with leaves also on a separate flower stem. Flowers with 5 to 9petal-like sepals, white, brownish-white or reddish. Pistil column veryshort or its capital (stigma) in direct contact with the fruitlet. Pistilsand stamens numerous. Fruit, dry one-seeded cells in a cluster. Be-low the flower, at some distance, is a wliorl of 3 leaves, each loaf divided(except in A. canadensis), into 3 separate leaflets, each of these lealletsis deeply cut into 3 acute lobes. In .1. canadensis the leaves are deeplydivided but not into separate parts. In all our si)ecies, except A. quinquc-folia, the flower stem divides at the main whorl of leaves into from 2 to5 flower stalks, each bearing a single bud or flower and on some of thesesecondary stalks may occur also a secondary, leaf whorl above which an-pther division of the stem may appear.
