In the Community: What's In Bloom

Canada Anemone (Anemone canadensis)


The white flowers with yellow centres, which appear in June-July, are quite striking against the bright green leaves.  This plant’s hairy leaves are 3-5 lobed giving it its family name, Crowfoot.  Canada Anemone is a poisonous plant; touching any part of the plant causes skin irritation and eating it produces severe gastro-enteritis.
