Anemone, also known as windflower, is a perennial herbaceous plant of the family Ranunculaceae. Its genus includes more than 150 species, which differ in height from 10–15 cm to 100–140 cm and in the variety of flower colors – from delicate pastel tones to bright saturated shades. Anemone petals are usually thin and long, often arranged close to each other, creating a lace-like appearance.
In ornamental horticulture, anemone is valued for its elegance and hardiness. It easily adapts to various climatic conditions, making it a popular choice for flower beds, borders, alpine gardens, and even cut flowers. For successful cultivation, it is important to choose sunny locations and ensure regular watering, especially during the active growth period.

The height of this plant is 20–30 cm, and flowering begins as early as August when planted in May. The flower is characterized by a bright bud with a dark center and small stamens, making it an attractive element of any garden.
