Anemone Virginiana Var. Riparia

Anemone virginiana var. riparia is a striking native plant commonly found along riverbanks and wetlands in eastern North America. With its delicate, white petals and a central cluster of yellow stamens, it adds a touch of elegance to its moist, shady habitat. This variety of anemone thrives in areas with consistent water flow, making it a resilient addition to riparian ecosystems. Its early spring blooms provide a valuable food source for pollinators like bees and butterflies. Despite its beauty, it is often overlooked in favor of more showy garden flowers.
