Ten-Petal Anemone
(Anemone berlandieri)
Ranunculaceae
This plant is considered a cool season
perennial although it sometimes comes up after rains
during the summer. Unlike a lot of plants, there is
a very small window when Ten-Petal Anemones are "out".
All the plants start flowering at the same time and
are finished in about one (to two) weeks.
There is a bit of disagreement on whether
this is the same plant known as Anemone caroliniana.
Some scientists classify it as two separate species
while some consider it the same.
> > QUESTION: How many petals does this flower have? Approximation is fine. (view answer below)
