Round-lobed Hepatica Anemone Americana Sharp-lobed Hepatica Anemone acutiloba This wildflower received its Latin and common names from the Latin word “epatikos meaning ‘affecting the liver’” (Runkel, S., & Bull, A., p. 7). The old European “Doctrine of Signatures” maintained that plants that resembled a part of the body were useful in treating disorders of that limb or organ. The color and shape of Hepatica leaves resemble the liver and therefore it was thought that it could treat liver diseases. Hepatica noblis grows in Germany. There it is called Leberblümchen or “Liver Flower”. A German nature guide indicates that its dried leaves are used to cure liver ailments. (Eisenreich, W., p. 252). Mature Round-lobed Hepatica Leaves The Round-lobed Hepatica Anemone Americana has rounded leaves and the Sharp-lobed Hepatica Hepatica acutiloba has sharp leaves and bracts. Sharp-lobed Hepatica Leaves Later in Spring Round-lobed Hepatica Leaves Later in Spring Hepaticas grow well in rich, moist soil where larger wildflowers will not compete with them. They grow to be about six inches in height. The flower buds on these perennials emerge on hairy stems before the new leaves appear. They bloom from March to June. The petal-like sepals may be shades of violet, pink, or white and are surrounded by three green bracts. Pink Hepatica Flowers White Hepatica Flowers Purple Hepatica Flower Many stamens with greenish-white anthers surround many pistils that can develop into fruits at the center of the flower. New flowers open on sunny days and close in the dark. As the flowers mature they remain open in varied light. White Hepatica Flowers and Green Bracts New unfolded, silky and hairy leaves appear soon after the flowers. Sharp-lobed Hepatica Leaves in Early Spring The old leaves are purple and green. As the new leaves open they are rounded for the Round-lobed Hepatica and sharp for the Sharp-lobed Hepatica. As they open they are light green and later they turn dark olive green. The cylindrical pointed seeds form in a starry cluster. .

Number 35 July-September
THE BULB NEWSLETTER Number 35 July-September 2001 Amana lives, long live Among! ln the Kew Scientist, Issue 19 (April 2001), Kew's Dr Mike Fay reports on the molecular work that has been carried out on Among. This little tulip«like eastern Asiatic group of Liliaceae that we have long grown and loved as Among (A. edulis, A. latifolla, A. erythroniolde ), but which took a trip into the genus Tulipa, should in fact be treated as a distinct genus. The report notes that "Molecular data have shown this group to be as distinct from Tulipa s.s. [i.e. in the strict sense, excluding Among] as Erythronium, and the three genera should be recognised.” This is good news all round. I need not change the labels on the pots (they still labelled Among), neither will i have to re~|abel all the as Erythronlum species tulips! _ Among edulis is a remarkably persistent little plant. The bulbs of it in the BN garden were acquired in the early 19605 but had been in cultivation well before that, brought back to England by a plant enthusiast participating in the Korean war. Although not as showy as the tulips, they are pleasing little bulbs with starry white flowers striped purplish-brown on the outside. It takes a fair amount of sun to encourage them to open, so in cool temperate gardens where the light intensity is poor in winter and spring, pot cultivation in a glasshouse is the best method of cultivation. With the extra protection and warmth, the flowers will open out almost flat.

Round-Lobed Hepatica (Anemone Americana) – Wooly Harbinger of Spring
Round-lobed Hepatica (Anemone americana) – Wooly Harbinger of Spring Did you Know? Hepaticas are one of the first flowers to bloom in Spring. Native Americans used a tea derived from the leaves to cure a number of ailments. Hepaticas are poisonous in large doses. They can also be irritating to the skin if handled. Photo : 2013 Brian Popelier Habitat – Upland woods and forests, deciduous forests Size – 70-170 cm in height Range – Manitoba, Ontario and Quebec south into the eastern United States Flowering Date – March - May Status – S5/ Common in Ontario Other Common Names – Liverleaf, Snow Trillium, Blue Anemone, Kidneywort The Bruce Trail Conservancy | PO Box 857 Hamilton, ON L8N 3N9 | 1.800.665.4453 | [email protected] Identification: Purple, pink or white six - ten petaled flowers sit atop a single, leafless stem covered in wooly hairs. Flowers often found in clumps. The leaves are distinct with three lobes ending in a rounded tip. The flower stocks are upright standing over the flattened basal leaves. The leaves are light green at first but turn a purplish, wine colour as the season wears on and can often be seen standing out from the snow in the winter. Photo : 2013 Brian Popelier Interesting Facts The plant gets its name from the leathery purple-brown basal leaves, which resemble the shape of the liver. Many early herbalists believed that the shape of the plant determined its usefulness in the treatment of liver ailments. Bees and flies are the primary pollinators. The plant uses ants to distribute their seeds. As the seeds drop ants pick them up and disperse the seeds to other areas.

Kholodny Institute of Botany National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine 2 Tereshchenkivska Street Kiev (Kyiv), 01004 Ukraine [email protected] ABSTRACT Following the proposed re-circumscription of genera in the group of Anemone L. and related taxa of Ranunculaceae (Mosyakin 2016, Christenhusz et al. 2018) and based on recent molecular phylogenetic and partly morphological evidence, the genus Anemonastrum Holub is recognized here in an expanded circumscription (including Anemonidium (Spach) Holub, Arsenjevia Starod., Tamuria Starod., and Jurtsevia Á. Löve & D. Löve) covering members of the “Anemone ” clade with x=7, but excluding Hepatica Mill., a genus well outlined morphologically and forming a separate subclade (accepted by Hoot et al. (2012) as Anemone subg. Anemonidium (Spach) Juz. sect. Hepatica (Mill.) Spreng.) within the clade earlier recognized taxonomically as Anemone subg. Anemonidium (sensu Hoot et al. 2012). The following new combinations at the section and subsection ranks are validated: Anemonastrum Holub sect. Keiskea (Tamura) Mosyakin, comb. nov . ( Anemone sect. Keiskea Tamura); Anemonastrum [sect.

Anemone Acutiloba – Hepatica
Friends of the Arboretum Native Plant Sale Anemone acutiloba – Hepatica COMMON NAME: Hepatica, Sharp-lobed hepatica SCIENTIFIC NAME: Anemone acutiloba – the Greek word anemos is wind and acutiloba refers to the pointed leaves. The common name of hepatica comes from the fancied resemblance of the 3-lobed leaves to the liver. FLOWER: white, pink, lavender with six (usually) petal-like sepals. The color tends to fade with age. BLOOMING PERIOD: April, but maybe March with global warming! This is one of the earliest spring flowers. SIZE: 4 to 6 inches BEHAVIOR: This is a perennial herb with its distinctive 3-lobed leaves and fibrous roots. It will spread from seed and should be divided in fall. SITE REQUIREMENTS: Does best in rich, moist soil and dense shade of maple forests, but tolerates less shady habitats and drier, rocky soils. Look for it on steep, rocky hillsides and steep banks of creeks. NATURAL RANGE; Nova Scotia to northern Florida, west to Manitoba, Iowa, Missouri and even in Alaska. In Wisconsin it is more common in the southern 2/3 of the state. SPECIAL FEATURES: Old leaves may still be present in early spring, but will be looking kind of coppery. Then furry stems unfurl and hold the fragrant pastel flowers. The new leaves appear after flowering and will remain sort of green until the following spring. SUGGESTED CARE: Provide ample water in spring and fall, especially the first few years. Cover in winter with light mulch of maple leaves, but remove the mulch in mid to late March. COMPANION PLANTS: trillium, Solomon’s plume, toothwort, Dutchman’s breeches, spring beauty, wild geranium, bloodroot, troutlily, bedstraw, rue anemone SPECIAL NOTE: There is a similar specials, Anemone Americana, with round-lobed leaves.

Hepatica Acutiloba DC. Hepatica, Sharp-Lobed Hepatica, Liverleaf, Liverwort
Kasey Hartz Natural Area Reference Sheet Hepatica acutiloba DC. Hepatica, sharp-lobed hepatica, liverleaf, liverwort. Ranunculaceae (Buttercup Family) Blooming season: March-early May. Plant: Fibrous rooted perennial. Low, to 23 cm. Unbranched, all stems arising from a central point, forming a rosette. Reported to prefer calcareous soils, but tolerant of acid. Leaves: Three-lobed leaves, with pointed tips to lobes; leaves about 10cm across. Sometimes with additional small lobes (up to total of 7). Persistent through winter with a maroonish/brownish color, lying flat on the ground instead of standing up. Involucral bracts are pointed, looking somewhat like sepals, but distinct from flower. New leaves appear after flowers. Flower: Sepals, the colored parts, vary in number from 6-12, usually 6-8. White, pink, and lavender flowers borne singly on hairy leafless stems. Hairs “directed backward along stems and leafstalks” (Rickett 1966, p. 126). Plants with different colors may grow together. Flowers close at night and on very dark days. One of earliest spring flowers. Fruit: Achene. Can be confused with: Hepatica americana (DC.) Ker, but leaf lobes and involucre of that species are rounded and the hairs on the stem point up. The two species do hybridize to some extent if found in the same area. Kasey Hartz Natural Area Reference Sheet Hepatica acutiloba DC. Hepatica, sharp-lobed hepatica, liverleaf, liverwort 2 Geographic range: Type specimen location: State: Throughout the Lower Peninsula; central and far western portions of the Upper Peninsula.

They are a colourful and diverse group, and we hope you enjoy using this guide to explore them further and identify them in the field. ADORABLE ANEMONES is a fully illustrated working e-guide to the most commonly encountered shallow water species of Actiniaria, Corallimorpharia, Ceriantharia and Zoantharia, the anemones of New Zealand. It is designed for New Zealanders like you who live near the sea, dive and snorkel, explore our coasts, make a living from it, and for those who educate and are charged with kaitiakitanga, conservation and management of our marine realm. It is one in a series of e-guides on New Zealand Marine invertebrates and algae that NIWA’s Coasts and Oceans group is presently developing. The e-guide starts with a simple introduction to living anemones, followed by a simple colour index, species index, detailed individual species pages, and finally, icon explanations and a glossary of terms. As new species are discovered and described, new species pages will be added and an updated version of this e-guide will be made available. Each anemone species page illustrates and describes features that will enable you to differentiate the species from each other.

Bloodroot (Sanguinaria Canadensis) • FACU Plant Family: Poppy (Papaveraceae)
BWSR Featured Plant Statewide Wetland Indicator Status: • FACU Name: Bloodroot (Sanguinaria canadensis) Plant Family: Poppy (Papaveraceae) Emerging as early as March from last fall’s bed of leaves, bloodroot is one of the first signs of spring across Minnesota. Named for the red sap in its roots, it was once used as a dye by Native American artists and in the natural dying of yarn and fabrics. Roots and rhizomes are toxic to touch, so should be handled with gloves and no part of the plant should be ingested. A single flowering stem grows from the ground, encircled by a single 3-5” wide leaf. Typically found in wooded areas, flowers require some sun to bloom and must do so before towering trees sprout leaves and shade the forest floor. Once bloomed, leaves will unfurl and the fragrant flowers lasts only 1-2 days, closing at night – traits typical to the poppy family of plants. Leaves will persist throughout the growing season. Identification Leaves are basal only (growing from the root and not from stems). They are Bee on bloodroot flower oval to round in outline with 5-9 major lobes and several minor lobes. The Photo Amy Workman leaf is smooth with a radiating network of veins. The greyish-blue green leaves, with a whitish green underside, can grow from 3-12” tall and 3-5” across. The white flowers grow from reddish to green flower stalks and measure 1 ½-3” across and typically have 8-12 petals and many dark yellow- tipped stamens. Double flowers sometimes occur. Range Bloodroot is native north to Nova Scotia and south to Florida, from eastern United States to the Great Plains region.
