Anemone virginiana (Tall Anemone)

Conservtion Index 4, Blooms April-August, Blue River Glades and Jerry Smith Park

This plant is also called Thimble weed because the seed bearing part of the plant looks like a sewing thimble. This structure is formed after flowering, and the seeds are on the outside somewhat like a green strawberry. When mature, the head turns into a cottony mass with the seeds attached to the outside.
