| Anemone japonica, Sieb. & Zuce. Fig. 206. Stately, branching st., 2-3 ft. high plant soft and downy, with short hairs: Lvs. térnate, much lobed and toothed: fls. rosy purple or carmine; 1-3 whorls of sepals, 2-3 in. diam., on long peduncles from leafy involucre; stamens yellow: achenes silky.—A very useful species for mixed borders or for pot culture. Hardy in northern states. Sept. to late frosts. Rich soil, China and Japan. Gn.30:172. B.M.4341. P.M. 14:25. A.G. 19:305. Gng. 1:221; 3:131. G.C. III. 16:661. A.F. 12:29. F.S. 2:74. Gt. 61, p. 92. Var. alba, Hort. Honorine Jobert. The Bride. Whirlwind, etc. Two or 3 whorls of large, white sepals: fls. 2-3 in. across, lasting until hard frosts. Gng. 5:117. R.H. 1867:11. Var. crispa, Hort. Thick Lvs. bronzed on the edges: fls. rose - colored. Var. hy brida, Hort. (vars. rósea and élegans, Hort.). Radical Lvs. 5-lobed, often cordate; lobes twice serrate: fls. somewhat paler, earlier; sepals rather broader. Said to be a hybrid of A. japónica and A. vitifolia; produced in Royal Gardens, 1848. Var.rubra, Hort. Lady Ardilaun. Probably the same as the type, but having Lvs. and fls. with a waxy gloss: plant 4-5 ft. high. | | Anemone japonica, Sieb. & Zuce. Fig. 206.
