Genus Anemone (Anemone) Buttercup family

Wood anemone (anemone)

Wood anemone (anemone)(Anemone sylvestris L.). In early spring, on the edges, meadow slopes, steppes, you can find this delicate early-flowering plant with a single erect stem 10-20 cm tall and a shallow, jointed rhizome with an unusually white flower (3.5-7 cm in diameter), which sways from every breath of wind .

Three leaves are collected in a single whorl at the top of the stem. They are palmately dissected into 3-5 oblong lobes, serrate along the edges, 3-7 cm long. For friendship with the wind, these plants are often called anemones. The wind shakes the stems and leaves of the anemone, which makes them flexible and hardy. And in the summer, after the seeds ripen, their corollas shake so much that the fruits open and disperse 10-15 m from the mother plant.

It is important! Anemone is a poisonous plant- contains the alkaloid anemonol. When splitting this alkaloid, anemonin is released - an analgesic and antispasmodic substance that also acts on the heart. Wood anemone is listed in (rarity status category III - a rare species). The economic use of territories, collection in bouquets, digging up rhizomes for garden plots are the reasons for the decline in the number of this species.

Stems are erect, white-woolly at the top. Basal leaves are long-petioled, including 2-6, pubescent with soft long hairs, 3-5 dissected with rhombic segments, less than half sharply 3-cut dentate lobes; dressed with adjoining hairs, scattered above, dense below. Spathe leaves 3 in number, usually located above the middle of the stem, on petioles 1-2 cm long, 3 dissected; their segments are sessile, narrowly obovate in outline with a wedge-shaped base and a sharp apex, lateral 2-parted with lobules, like the middle segment, and with lobes bearing large ones at the apex, b. h. sharp teeth.

Peduncles solitary, long, densely appressed-hairy. Tepals 5 in number, pure white or slightly purple on the underside; stamens shorter than tepals, yellow; pistils ovate-rounded. The fruitlets are numerous, small, flattened, densely matted white tomentose, with a short nose.

Ranunculus anemone

Ranunculus anemone(Anemone ranunculoides L.) is found in all types of forests, on the edges, in thickets of shrubs, less often in open places, where it gravitates towards the banks of rivers, streams and temporary watercourses. Perennial with an underground horizontal, usually branched rhizome. Flowers are yellow. Peduncles usually 1-2, rarely 3-5. Blooms in April-May. Propagated by seeds and vegetatively. By its role in the life of the forest, buttercup anemone can be considered a seasonal dominant. The plant does not grow well together with grasses and sedges, but gets along well with goutweed and greenfinch.

It is important! Infusion of anemone leaves ranunculus is used for pain in the stomach, whooping cough, gout, dropsy, paralysis, and also as a means of enhancing the activity of the kidneys and lungs.

oak anemone

Oak anemone is a herbaceous plant with a fleshy rhizome and a single long-leaved leaf. Stems are erect, glabrous or sparsely hairy, with a whorl of three leaves on long thin petioles 1-2 cm long, the plates of which are dissected into three oblong segments, of which the lateral segments are 2-separate, the middle one is 3-notched, with an entire wedge-shaped base and incised-serrate lobules and lobes.

Peduncles solitary, long, appressed-hairy. Flowers 4-4.5 cm in diameter, consist of a simple (6-8 leaflets) perianth, oblong-ovate white or reddish-violet outside, occasionally completely reddish-violet, naked on both sides, numerous stamens and pistils.

The stamens are many times shorter than the tepals; anthers are yellow. Fruitlets 4-4.5 mm long, oblong, short-hairy, with a short curved nose. The difference from the forest anemone (A. sylvestris L.) is that the latter has a short rhizome and several leaves (basal) at the base of the stem, similar to the stem ones. Leaves pawled-5-separate, petiolate, with rhombic, incised lobes. The stem is white-woolly upwards (as are the fruits). Perianth b.h. of 5 elliptical, fluffy leaves on the outside

oak anemone usually grows in deciduous forests. Its solitary peduncles bear one white flower with a purple tint on the outer side of the petals, a flower 2-6 cm in diameter.

This is interesting! The Latin name of the genus Anemone means daughter of the winds. We might never have known the sad story of Romeo and Juliet if Shakespeare had not met the famous botanist Jellal in his time. Jellal was fond of breeding buttercups and argued that "the poisons of buttercups are not dangerous at all, and if you skillfully use their power, then the poisons can be turned to your advantage."

Therefore, in Shakespeare, the pharmacist Lorenzo does exactly this when Juliet turns to him for help - he gives her a drug, from which the girl plunges into a deep sleep, which relatives and friends take for death. They say that anemones grew from tears shed by the goddess Aphrodite after her death her beloved Adonis.

Attention! anemone leaves poisonous, have narcotic properties. In this regard, their use for medicinal purposes requires great care and mandatory medical supervision!

Hello "Grandma"! I want to talk about the healing properties of forest and ranunculus anemone. When anemone blooms, forest trees and shrubs are just beginning to bloom. At this time, there is a lot of light in the forest. After the trees are dressed in foliage and it becomes dark in the forest, the development of anemone ends. It begins to turn yellow, the stem with leaves withers and lies on the ground. A living rhizome is preserved only in the soil, which gives rise to a new shoot with leaves and a flower the next spring. For medicinal purposes, fresh, rarely dry anemone leaves are used. They are harvested in dry, clear weather, when the dew has come off the grass. Forest anemone is a perennial herbaceous rhizome plant with an erect stem, 15-30 cm high. Its leaves are long-petiolate, basal, five-parted, densely pubescent. The flowers are large (30-70 mm in diameter), five-parted, white, densely pubescent. The fruit is a seed. Usually, forest anemone grows in broad-leaved and mixed forests, on slopes, in glades, in the steppe. For medicinal purposes, only the aerial part of the plant (grass) is used, in which saponins, protoanemonin, ascorbic acid, flavonoids and organic acids are found. A decoction of the anemone herb is used for loss of vision and hearing, for headache and toothache, whooping cough, diseases of the upper respiratory tract, colds, delayed menstruation, gonorrhea, leucorrhea, impotence and paralysis. Since the plant is poisonous, it is necessary to prepare and take anemone decoction strictly individually and only after consultation with an experienced herbalist. Outwardly, the herb of anemone forest is used as a compress for skin diseases, including syphilis, as well as rheumatism. Flowers are applied to boils. Ranunculus anemone is a perennial herbaceous plant of the buttercup family, which has a long, creeping, well-developed dark brown rhizome, from which several scaly leaves on long petioles extend. Stem 10 to 30 cm tall, erect, glabrous or sparsely hairy. The leaves are semi-skinny, three-lobed, deeply heart-shaped at the base, often covered with a purple bloom from below. The flowers are bright yellow, with three small, sepal-like, green involucral leaves and 6 blue, petal-like sepals; the corolla is underdeveloped; many stamens and pistils. It is pollinated by rainwater: this occurs when the erect perianth is filled with water, on the surface of which pollen grains float. Ranunculus anemone infusion is taken for congestion in the bile ducts, gallstones, bronchitis, tracheitis, neuralgia, migraine, stress and malaria, and is used for washing with eczema. To prepare the infusion, pour 2 tsp into 0.5 liters of boiling water. chopped herb plants, insist 1 hour in a warm place, strain and drink 4 tbsp. 4 times a day 30 minutes before meals. You can brew 10 g of fresh chopped anemone leaves in a thermos with a glass of boiling water, leave for 4 hours, strain and drink 1/4 cup 4 times a day 20 minutes before meals. Take infusions slowly, intermittently, in small sips. An alcoholic tincture of ranunculus anemone (1 tbsp chopped grass, pour 100 ml of 40-65 ° alcohol and leave for a week) is used externally in the form of compresses and lotions for edema, gout, rheumatism and sciatica. That's all I wanted to tell about anemone. Use this plant in treatment, but only strictly observe the dosage, as it is poisonous.

Preliminary work.

In art classes, students draw primroses and make up stories about flowers on their own using reference books.

At technology lessons, students perform applique work on the theme "Primroses".

Excursions are conducted to study and protect the primroses growing in the area. Before the excursions, discussions are held about the types of primroses and the protection of primroses, about the Red Book of Russia and the region.

All the accumulated material: drawings, students' work, handwritten stories is used to create a handwritten book for primary school students.

The result of this work is the creation of a book for primary school students "Primroses".

During the classes.

Organizing time. Setting the topic of the lesson.

The students have mosaic elements in their hands. Seating in groups. Collecting the mosaic "Primroses".

You have mosaic elements in your hands. Find the same numbers on the pieces of the mosaic. Sit in groups. Assemble the mosaic.

Name what you have collected.

Children's answers. - This is flowers. Dandelion. Ranunculus anemone. Lungwort. Chistyak.

How to name these flowers? (primroses)

Today in the lesson we will talk about primroses, and make a book about them.

Why are they called that?

A conversation about primroses using a presentation.

Students talk about flowers. The teacher adds students' stories.

The name of this flower is related to the word "snow" and in nature this flower is directly connected with it?

What are snowdrops?

snowdrops in Russia, it is customary to call a wide variety of plants that bloom first in spring. However, there are real snowdrops. Their scientific name is "galanthus", which in Latin means "milk flower".

Why are snowdrops not afraid of anything?

Guys, I know such a secret. You are very inquisitive and I will open it for you. Or maybe you know when the plant begins to grow? (children's answers). That's right, when the sap flow begins. And snowdrops have extraordinary juice, it is sugar! Yes, exactly, it contains a lot of sugar, and such solutions with a high sugar content do not freeze during slight frosts.
Indeed, his flowers are white as milk. These are quite rare plants for Russia. And we call snowdrops, or primroses, other flowers. Why are they called that?

– The first flowers appear in deciduous forests. They are called ephemeroids. These are perennial herbaceous plants, which are characterized by autumn-winter-spring vegetation. They bloom early in spring, in summer their ground parts die off, only underground modified shoots remain - bulbs, tubers, rhizomes. Snowdrops are: goose onion, lungwort, corydalis, oak anemone, etc.

Blue Scilla. She likes to grow in oak forests. As if blue puddles, and even lakes overflow. She is not afraid of spring frosts, because my cells contain an increased concentration of sugar.

Lungwort. Not quite an ordinary flower blooms next to the blueberry, which in itself is a multi-colored bouquet. This is a honeysuckle. At first, when the flowers first appear, they are all pink. But a few days will pass, and on the stalk, in addition to pink, blue, and blue, and purple appear.

Do you know why she changes her outfits? It's all about the dye - anthocyanins. In young flowers, the juice in the cells of the petals is acidic; in such an environment, anthocyanin colors the petals in a bright pink color. After a few days, the cell sap becomes alkaline, anthocyanin gives the petals a purple, and later a blue color. She is a wonderful honey plant, it is not for nothing that she is called Medunitsa.

Now listen to the quatrain and guess which of these plants I'm talking about?

On the slope, in the meadow,

Barefoot in the snow

First flowers -

Yellow eyes! ( coltsfoot)

Why is this plant so called?

Coltsfoot- Her leaves are large, unusual: on top they are green, smooth, hard, and whitish below, covered with soft hairs and seem to be warm. For these features, the flower got its name: the tender side is a kind "mother", and the upper side of the leaves is an unkind "stepmother". My Latin name means "cough-removing".

next plant - Corydalis.

Corydalis- The flowers are collected in an elegant tassel. And each flower is like a small tuft. For only a few days I delight my eyes with its beauty. Already at the end of spring you will not see it. Not only flowers will disappear, but also the stem and leaves. Only the tuber will remain in the soil. From it next year the plant will grow. And, of course, from the seeds that fell to the ground. But the plant blooms only for 4-5 years of its life. She has a TUBE - a modified shoot of a plant with a thickened stem and underdeveloped leaves. The tuber contains a supply of nutrients. It is due to him that I begin to grow and bloom early. The tuber is edible for both humans and animals.

Anemone- The anemone will bloom - and it will seem that winter has returned and decorated everything with large snowflakes. The sky will frown, the rain will gather - and the white flowers will immediately close. In almost all spring plants, flowers close at night and when bad weather and very cold weather sets in. This contributes to their preservation in adverse weather and the preservation of pollen.

The name immediately reminds the wind. In early spring, this small, thin-legged, yellow, delicate flower appears from the warm spring wind. But it looks like a buttercup in color, so not just anemone, but buttercup.

What flower do they say this about: “With milk, not a cow, it flies, not a nightingale.”

Forest anemone is a delicate graceful flower that has several different species found in our country. It is listed in the Red Book and is quite rare in nature. Mostly in the wild can be found in places where people rarely visit.

The name comes from the translation into Russian of the Latin word Anemone: anemone belongs to the genus of anemones. The word is derived from "anemos" - wind. There is an assumption that these flowers are named so, because when the wind gusts, the petals close, as if hiding from the wind. In the people, anemone is called night blindness, and it is also a well-known snowdrop.

The first time the plant blooms for 6-9 years of its life. One flower lives from about a week to two. A total anemone can live from six to twelve years. The Red Book prohibits the collection of wild flowers of this species.

On the territory of Russia it grows up to the tundra zone. It can often be seen in the wild conditions of Siberia, both Western and Eastern. Also habitats are Yakutia, the Amur Region, the Caucasus and the Ciscaucasian zone. Rare, but can be found in the Smolensk region.

Types of anemones

In total, the anemone genus includes approximately 120 plant species. They all grow in the Northern Hemisphere. The main difference between these species is the color of the petals. By the way, these plants are very decorative, unpretentious and widely bred by flower growers and gardeners. Many of their varieties have been artificially bred, such as you will not find in nature. Among the species of natural origin, buttercup and oak anemone are especially common.

Description of species

Ranunculus anemone is a perennial flower that grows in forests and on hillocks. So named because of its resemblance to the common buttercup. It has a wide range, found throughout Europe, except for the Mediterranean, and you will not see it in the British Isles. But it can be found in the taiga of Western Siberia and the Caucasus. It begins to bloom early - after 1-2 weeks after the snow melts and the sun warms a little. The plant is perennial, its life can reach several tens of years due to a powerful root system. But this rhizome is located shallow underground, therefore, in especially frosty winters, the flower often freezes.

Ranunculus anemone is rarely found in single specimens. More often this plant creates groups. Their flowering is short - only 3-4 days. Then the petals fall off, and in their place small fruits with ripening seeds are formed. By the end of May, the plant is already drying and withering, and the seeds finally ripen and spill out onto the ground. By the beginning of summer, ranunculus anemone is already disappearing from the above-ground part of the soil, now until next spring all its life will pass underground in succulent rhizomes. Such plants, whose most of the life passes in the root form, are called ephemeroids. Thus, they gain strength and prepare for the next season of flowering and reproduction. On our website you can see photos of forest anemone.

Oak anemone is another very common type of plant. By name, it is easy to assume that it is found next to oaks. It grows in warmer latitudes than ranunculus. Similar in appearance to the first species, but the flowers are larger, and they are white. Oak anemone - this is the very famous snowdrop that is found in fairy tales.

plant benefits

• Good honey plant. Common forest anemone for its short flowering period provides bees with a sufficiently large amount of pollen. Anemone always has a single flower with a very large number of pistils and stamens in the calyx, which makes these plants ideal honey plants.
• It is used in pharmacy because it has some medicinal properties. At the same time, the plants are poisonous.

Growing conditions

Their attractiveness for artificial cultivation lies in the beauty of the flower, long flowering period, unpretentiousness and early flowering. When all other plants are just waking up, the anemone is already giving its beauty with might and main. Plus, it is also in the fact that the plant is truly perennial and, with proper care, will delight its owner, guests and passers-by for ten or even more years.

In addition, it is very resistant to pests and various diseases. Due to the fact that the plant is poisonous, it is not to the taste of various insects and harmful bugs.

Anemone loves light areas, sandy soil is required. In nature, its scattered distribution is characteristic. If the forest anemone is bred artificially, then, as a rule, it blooms for 2-3 years of life. Its terry species have been bred - larger and brighter colors than natural ones.

Common coloration:

• yellow;
• white;
• pink;
• red;
• purple;
• lilac.

Other beautiful shades of anemone are also artificially bred. At the same time, the decorativeness of the plant is also in the fact that the outer part of the petals is of the usual contrasting shade.

Forest anemone feels good in the shade, does not tolerate the scorching rays of the sun, so it must be shaded. For artificial breeding, it is better to plant this flower under the spreading and wide crowns of garden trees, where sufficient shade will be provided to the delicate anemone petals.

In watering, the need for anemone is quite moderate. But the soil needs good drainage. In stagnant soils, she will feel bad. The earth is necessary with a sufficient content of sand and at the same time should be quite loose with a good percentage of nutrients.

The advantage of breeding anemones in our latitudes is that the plant tolerates cold very well. Real forest anemone will require shelter of its root system only in very severe frosts. The exception is crown anemone, one of the species that is thermophilic, it can only be grown in the south.

For plant propagation, it is important to sow fresh seeds, which have been lying for a long time are no longer suitable. In artificial conditions, they are often propagated vegetatively - by dividing tubers, petioles and rhizomes. At the same time, it is important to carry out work on division and reproduction during the period when the flower is resting, this is August and September. During flowering it is impossible in any case.

medicinal use

For medicinal purposes, the stem of the plant and the leaves are used - the part that is above the ground. The rhizome has no medical value. Medicinal properties:

• Anemone forest is used as an antiseptic.
• Reduces inflammation.
• Removes and minimizes various pain sensations.
• Quickly removes fluid from the body, having powerful diuretic and diaphoretic properties.

In folk medicine, it is widely used:

• For the treatment of vision.
• Removes migraines.
• Eliminates colds and related symptoms: cough, runny nose, sore throat, high fever.
• Helps with diseases of the digestive system and gastrointestinal tract.
• Treats some infectious diseases, including venereal: gonorrhea, candidiasis.
• There are cases that the use of anemones as a medicine helped with partial paralysis.
• Anemone helps with impotence.
• Well draws pus from abscesses and boils, while disinfecting the wound.

When using anemones as a medicine, it must be remembered that the plant is poisonous, so the correct dosage and exposure time are very important.

Anemone forest is a very popular medicinal plant, used for a long time in folk medicine. It is used to treat a whole range of diseases and is used in therapy along with classical medicines. Therefore, it is necessary to know its description, as well as the subtleties of cultivation, not only for adherents of traditional medicine, but also for patients with such diseases as, for example, skin ailments, syphilis, and CNS disorders.

If we take the practical use of this representative of the flora in landscape design, then it is very often used to decorate group plant decorations, as well as when decorating various areas with rocky soil in one style or another. There are also garden forms. By the way, when cultivating a plant in a garden or in a personal plot, you must always remember that it is poisonous. Therefore, children and pets should not be allowed near it.

As for the use of an anemone for landscape design, it is best for you to look at a photo of it before planting an anemone in the ground. As a result, you will have an idea of ​​​​its appearance and the place that it can take in the garden as part of a group composition. If you plant this plant randomly, it can simply spoil the look of your site.

Brief description of the plant

A plant such as forest anemone, or as it is also called lute anemone, belongs to the systematists of the plant world to the ranunculus family. It is a perennial representative of the flora with a herbaceous stem and has a height of 30-40 cm. The rhizome of this representative of the flora is short, and 2 to 5 leaves are located at the root collar. They are considered basal plant anatomists and capable of forming a rosette.

Anemone leaves are palmately three to five-parted and grow on long petioles. In addition, their distinguishing features are rhombic-shaped incisions-teeth. The flowers of this representative of the flora are quite large and solitary, white. The plant gives fruits nut-shaped, somewhat flattened. They have a short nose, and they themselves are white felt.

Anemone is a perennial plant and it has been known to mankind since ancient times. By the way, it got its name due to the fact that its flower petals fall off very easily under the influence of the wind. The plant is used for medical and aesthetic purposes, as it belongs to primroses and begins to bloom in early spring.

In nature, there are approximately 150 varieties of this representative of the plant world. Wood anemone is listed in the Red Book. The plant has received the greatest distribution in the European region of our country, and it can be found in all its regions, except for the Nizhnevolzhsky. It also grows in the Far East region, Western Siberia, Belarus, Moldova, Ukraine, the Caucasus and Central Asia.

Very often, forest anemone is confused with a plant such as oak anemone, which grows in the Mediterranean, the Western European region, and also in the European part of Russia. You can distinguish them from each other by the shape of the leaves. In the oak anemone they are thrice dissected.

As for the forest anemone, it usually grows on the soils of dry steppe meadows, open hilly areas, fallows, under bushes, in light forests with coniferous trees, on cliffs. However, she prefers sandy or carbonate soils. This circumstance should always be taken into account when it is cultivated in artificial conditions for decorative or medicinal purposes.

Choosing a place for planting a windmill

If you are interested in anemone, you should find a photo in advance in order to choose the right seedlings and not confuse it with other plants of the lute family. After you purchase planting material, the question arises of determining the landing site. The fact is that the anemone plant loves sunlight very much, therefore, when choosing a place for its landing, they usually orient themselves on a flat, well-lit place. However, there are species that love twilight. For example, such types of anemone as Amur or oak can be planted in garden complexes under dense tree crowns or on the north side of buildings.

All shade-loving species, such as Canadian or fork anemone, tolerate the neighborhood with trees such as cherry, sea buckthorn or plum. This is due to the fact that under natural conditions they grow in well-lit forest clearings. The hybrid anemone grows well in the shade, the parental forms of which trace their pedigree from the forests of East Asia.

On the European territory of the Russian Federation, such a hybrid can grow well on the eastern side of buildings and in open ground in sunny places or in conditions of light shading. As for the types of anemones that grow exclusively in the shade, these are flexible, Amur and Altai.

There are also species that love sunlight, but it is worth remembering that all varieties of anemones need moderate moisture. Therefore, if the same ranunculus anemone is darkened, but its watering regime is observed, it will grow well in such a site. The main thing is to avoid stagnant moisture in the root area. In addition, this plant tolerates a temporary lack of moisture, so you should not be afraid of a short-term drought.

As for the soil, the plant we are describing does not require the presence of fertile and loose soils on the site. Forest chickenpox can also grow well on sandy soils that are poor in nutrients. However, if you want it to bloom well and have larger flowers, it is better to place it on more nutritious soil. In this case, the soil structure should consist of peaty or light sandy soils. Moreover, if the soil is acidified, it is limed with ash.

Forest anemone care

After you decide on the landing site, you can proceed directly to placing this plant in the soil. Anemone is usually planted in the spring. To do this, seedlings or segments of roots with them are placed in a hole previously dug in the soil with built-in drainage. In addition, tubers can be planted in spring after their winter storage, just do not bury either tubers or seedlings deeper than 2-5 cm, otherwise the plant will not take root.

Important! It is worth noting separately that ranunculus anemone does not need to be watered after planting, however, you should not miss the moment when the leaves on the planting material have not yet completely dried out in this process.

If this happens, the plant will definitely not take root. In the event that you plant the chickenpox correctly in the summer, it will bloom next spring. By the way, do not repot it often. Usually she does not tolerate this procedure well and dies.

As for the care of an already planted and established plant, after planting it will need to be mulched with loose peat or humus. The best option would be to use the leaves of trees such as oak or apple trees as mulch. In this way, you can achieve an imitation of the forest floor, on which the forest anemone grows best.

It is best to apply fertilizer for it when buds appear on it, while it would be best to use complex mineral fertilizers. But as for watering, the anemone practically does not need it. This representative of the flora requires moisture only during the flowering period. This quality is valuable, first of all, because it can be used to decorate flower beds in those places where there are difficulties with watering. By the way, in order for the anemone to successfully fit into such a flower bed, you must first take a photo of all the plants that will grow in it. On such a photo it will be possible to make a landing.

Important! The described plant is poorly resistant to cold weather, so in the fall it will need to be covered with stale manure or grass compost.

In addition, you can carry out such a shelter with the help of oak, linden, maple or apple leaves.

Storage of plant tubers and its pests

Chickenpox tubers are dug up for winter storage at the end of the growing season. After that, they are dried at a temperature of 15-20 °C. During storage, it should be maintained in storage at a level of 3-5 °C. In the spring after the snow melts or in autumn in October, the tubers are placed in the ground. In this case, both whole tubers and their segments with "eyes" can be planted. They are deepened by about 5 cm, before wetting them in warm water.

Separately, it is worth mentioning the pests of forest chickenpox. The fact is that this unpretentious plant has very few of them, and the main one is the leaf nematode. It manifests itself in the form of yellowish-brown spots, which later darken sharply. This disease cannot be treated, and if a nematode appears on your site, you will only have to destroy the affected plants. In addition, it will be necessary to remove the upper, affected layer of soil, and plant plants of other species on the site.

Attention! The described plant is optimal for a novice gardener, as it is unpretentious, does not require special care, and fits perfectly into any landscape.

Therefore, it makes sense for novice flower growers to start their career with him. Having learned how to grow forest anemone, you can quite easily move on to the cultivation of more complex ornamental crops.
